In the bestselling tradition of Good in Bed, and She's Come Undone, comes a charming romantic comedy about a woman who flees a life and a body she doesn't want, and finds love and her true self in the process.
This book makes you want to be Charlotte Clapp, even with her weight problem and lack of self-esteem. It kept me intrested the whole time I was reading it. I had a very easy time becomming involved in her life and the journey she choose to take. It felt like I was there every step of the way. The book made me chuckle sometimes and understand just how she was feeling when wondering about the value of her own life. It was good even up to the last paragraph. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants their life to be different but doesn't know where to start.
Great Read

I absolutely loved this book above and beyond the great reviews it has gotten. Who could not identify with the main character? She exposes the human foibles in all of us. But what's so inspiring is how she rises above all the obstacles life puts in our way. If you want to feel good, read this book!!!

A great, fun read! Clearly a feel-good novel at a time when we need it most. The unexpected curves in the road leave the main character, Charlotte, on the adventure of a life time, which is ironic because she has a year to live, and live she does. I laughed ofen, but it was also both poetic and poignent. Don't forget to read the epilogue for the suprise ending. Like many of my friends, I read it in one day. It is a can't put-down book.
