"Easy to devour in one sitting, this tongue-and-cheek account of a BMI-obsessed society is both laughable and cringe-inducing. Unfolding in the confines of a Canadian Calorie Reduction Center (CRC) where people with a BMI greater than 30 are sent to lose weight, THE FATNESS is a story of socialism gone wrong is set amid a plausible backdrop with witty characters who will steal your heart and, snag your cheeseburger if you're not careful."~IndieReader.com
