* "Barson offers up a powerful and poignant novel about hope and love in the midst of common and controversial issues about weight gain, weight loss, and the ability to persevere despite our flaws and predispositions to "eating," or not eating, our emotions. It is a book readers will not want to wait to finish, and when it is done, they will pick it up again." --VOYA, starred review
