The body unapologetic
Things No One Will Tell Fat Girls
Jes Baker is a feminist, kitten-loving, rape culture-hating, body-accepting fat girl who blogs at The Militant Baker, and in Things No One Will Tell Fat Girls: A Handbook for Unapologetic Living (Seal Press, $16), she's also damned funny. This compendium of good advice for living well in our bodies isn't just for fat people. Instead, it's an excellent resource for anyone who wants to ditch the impossible race for perfection.
