A review by bug_lightyear
The Earth, My Butt and Other Big Round Things by Carolyn Mackler

Did not finish book. Stopped at 29%.
Read 30% in 7h at 65% speed 

I stopped after Virginia went to a doctor that sounded nice, listened to her, and said as long as she's healthy her weight isn't an issue, then when she half heartedly agreed to let her mother speak to him about her weight, the doctor goes on to unleash all the fatphobic stuff possible and tell her her weight is bad etc. And then she starts starving herself because her being thin is the only thing she wants after that. 
The I read from summaries that the book deals with sexual assault later on and I don't want to read about that. 

Also the book description says it's a new edition with foreword but that isn't present in the audiobook, it goes on straight to the story.
