Hunger

If you are a person of size, you will see yourself in this book. You will see the frustration of living in a body that doesn't do what you want, but is trying its best. You will have empathy and compassion for Roxane, and maybe yourself. If you are not fat, this book offers insight into how it feels to live in a world that finds you awful. It is a hard story to read because it is so sad, but it's also hopeful and so very worth it. In some moments I cried, some moments I just wanted to slap people for being so cruel to Roxane. It also made me think of the things I went through in high school people can be so cruel. I want every single person to read this book. They will either learn something about society or themself.
