Does popularity only come in one size? Jesobel Jones says what she wants and eats what she wants - she is who she is, no regrets. But when a wardrobe malfunction leads to a mortifying encounter with a mean girl, Jess's confidence suddenly takes a nosedive. Being fat has never bothered her before, but Jess starts to wonder if she's been just a little too comfortable in her own skin. When the boy of her dreams seems suddenly interested, Jess must decide whether to try to fit in or remain true to herself - whoever that is. This bold and hilarious debut novel speaks with authority and compassion about teen life as it's lived right now.
