5 May Books to Brighten Your Month

In her memoir Fat Girl Walking: Sex, Food, Love, and Being Comfortable in Your Skin . . . Every Inch of It, blogger and body image advocate Brittany Gibbons shares a collection of honest, hilarious stories about her life and the issues she's faced in regards to her weight. She writes:

"We love our bodies. We love fashion. We are in loving relationships, having lots of sex. We aren't just a fetish, we're normal women. Sure, sometimes we doubt ourselves, we're not robots, but not anymore than EVERY OTHER WOMAN ON THE PLANET. See, Fat Girls aren't freaks of nature. We're just like you. Maybe we are you."
