I got this book in a stack of hand me downs from my second oldest cousin, Renee. It’s a signed copy - signed to Renee, but signed nonetheless. I was enamoured! Fancy signed book! Too bad this book fucking SUCKS. From the first page, this writer slaps you in the face harddddd with good old fashioned fatphobia. Every second page, you will be reminded that the villain is fat and disgusting and greasy and sweaty and wobbling like a dropped blancmange. Even his eyebrows and eyeballs are described as fat and gross. This didn’t hit me as a kid (I was as dumb as a sack of rocks) but reading it over now as a fat adult, it’s kinda like? Geoffrey? Geoff? Buddy? Just say that you hate fat people and go. This is embarrassing for you. What’s your damage? Did a fat man look at you funny once and you never let it go?
