5.0 out of 5 stars Shut ME in a closet with Hal... or this book, next best thin, November 2, 1999

By A Customer

A fun, witty read, the heroine is one who hides behind a facade of humor while she eats away at what's really bothering her, (and in the process, eats chocolate truffles, ribs and Pizza Palace Pizzas.) If the food won't make your taste buds water, then the hero will. Read it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't miss this one!, October 25, 1999

By A Customer

I just read FAT CHANCE-what a gem in a sea of same-old, same-old. Any woman who's ever had to diet and diet over and over again can identify. This book had me laughing from the first line. Lindsey Michaels, the heroine was a breath of fresh air, saying what she felt without thinking the consequences. Hal Randall, her hero, was a great foil beside the strong-willed, pizza-munching Lindsey. This book reminded me of some of the old Lucy Shows. Bravo to Terry Campbell.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother with this one, October 22, 1999

By A Customer

Although a story that could have been a great one, Fat Chance left me struggling to get through to the end. The characters were not believable (I wanted to reach out and slap them a couple of times) and the dialogue impossible. I thought that if I read the tag he/she winced one more time, I'd scream. If it had been a paperback it would have been a wallbanger.
