Everyone seems to be getting on with their lives--except
Maggie. At 27, she's still working at the local coffee
house, while her friends are getting married, having
babies, and building careers. Even Olivia, Maggie's best
friend from childhood, is getting married to her doctor
boyfriend. Maggie, on the other hand, lives with her dog
Solo, and has no romantic prospects, save for the torch she
carries for Domenic, the busboy. Though Maggie and Olivia
have been best friends since their "fattie" grade school
years, Olivia's since gone the gastric-bypass surgery
route, in hopes of obtaining the elusive size two, the holy
grail for fat girls everywhere. So now Olivia's thin,
blonde, and betrothed, and Maggie's the fat bridesmaid.
Ain't life grand? In this inspiring debut novel, Maggie
speaks to women everywhere who wish for just once that they
could forget about their weight.
