Negative Positive
Title: No perspective or insight offered
Review: It seems like a lot of women loved this book so I will respect that - but I don't agree.Like many women I have had a low-grade obsession with my weight and body but after reading this book I realized that I overestimated my issues.I had to stop reading halfway through because it was just too boring and ridicules for words. The whole book is a parade of people spending their lives fretting about minute weight gains or the C-cup versus D-cup issue. But that is all it is: a parade of people lost to the world in navel-gazing over something truely meaningless. The authors obsessive listing of numbers does not sound to me like someone who has recovered from an obsession with weight and looks (nor does her picture on the backcover). It is sad how small you can make your own world.There are a couple of really insightful books on weight obsession out there but this isn't it.
Is the review positive or negative?
