A Nice Read
I will be the first to admit that this book was not meant for rocket scientists to ponder over, but the reason for the book can not be dismissed. Plus-sized women have issues with self-esteem and this is reinforced by society's "size 8 or less is beautiful" viewpoint. So, if reading a book makes you smile by simply pointing out why big women are beautiful, what is the harm? I enjoyed the book because it demonstrated how wonderful it is to be full-figured. It won't be a classic novel, but it is a POSITIVE affirmation for full-figured women. Thanks Katie.

Earns a spot on my list of BBW-friendly books.
By the time I discovered this book, I had become pretty jaded on the issue of plus-sized books. Many were the same old thing: wear lots of black to make you look slimmer, drape that scarf the right way to make you look slimmer, wear your blush up and out to make you look slimmer. You know the drill. But Katie Arons's book was a somewhat fresh, fun, frolick. And for me, it was the first book I'd read that dealt with BBWs and dating/romance.Though I was disappointed by the exclusion of larger BBWs, I still enjoyed reading this book. It's lighthearted and fun to read. Good for a quick boost to any BBW that's about to go out on the town or just thinking about it, Sexy at Any Size will come in handy.

What a CONFIDENCE booster!
I absolutely LOVED this book, and I read it twice. The author talks in detail about typical personality styles of plus size women and how to overcome those stereotypical facads and be a woman of confidence and size.A GREAT READ for those coming into being plus sized, or lifetimers.
