2.0 out of 5 stars
Obviously an earlier offering - not as good as recent ones!, April 2, 2007
This review is from: Till the Fat Lady Sings (Paperback)
I have become a huge fan of AW and thought I would go back and find some of her earlier books. I have to say I was rather disappointed by this offering. I found the characters to be a bit duller than her current ones and the book to be overall depressing. Then again it might be the fact that her 5'3" character is considered to be fat at 135 lbs, which just further buys into the size 0 stereotype that is evident today.
This story follows the early college year of Manya and her interactions and their intersecting lives with Ophelia, Arthur, her Professor, Saul and Boris.
More a fiction not a chick lit book.
