Fat Cat Audiobook

" Great read, but in the end, just a book about how eating vegan will make you lose weight and losing weight will make your life great. I was disappointed by that. "

" Think of reading this book as like watching a chick flick movie: yeah, there are cute little moments. Its very sweet and, of course, has a good ending despite all of the problems that need to be resolved. So yes, I enjoyed it. It's a nice sort of fluff read--so, obviously not my style of book--but not bad. Plus, they talked about the kind of food I eat almost the whole time, so, it was a nice change, for once. Cat's character is nice and spunky, which was good. I liked how she didn't need a guy to come to her rescue when she got into a little....hmm...let's say trouble as to avoid spoilers. It was hard to really understand her motivation at first, but the more you read the book, the more obvious it becomes, so at least they don't leave you guessing forever. But what I just can't stand (and this is a personal thing, not Brande's fault) is when the author alludes to some sort of past conflict and then waits forever to tell you what it is, because at that point, I've usually already guessed it and the moment that's supposed to be somewhat touching just turns out anticlimatic. So, real rating, 2.7 or 2.8. But that's just cuz I'm the type of person who, when my friends say "chick flick", thinks "Gladiator". "

" I love satisfying endings. This book was funny & smart, and Cat was a great character. :) "

" I really enjoyed this book as I have not really seen fiction that tackles the issue of our diets as well as this. The only downside of the book was the conflict between Cat and Matt was drawn out waaaay too much and I started yelling at my cd player around disc 4. "

" Sometimes you just need a good book to read, and this definitely fits the bill! "

" Beautifully written book about the power of forgiveness. "

" I really enjoyed this book! I found Cat and her story very relatable to myself. I felt familiar with the things she experienced and how she felt. Her best friend, Amanda, is awesome! She is a very caring, loyal friend. There were some cute moments in this book, that I enjoyed. A pretty good, quick read. 3.5/5 stars! "

" I really liked the book. It taught people that they should be themselves and not let anybody put them down. Cat had a lot of will-power to stay away from the bad foods. It would be extrememly hard for me. I really loved the book. "

" Such a fantastic YA novel. "

" For her Science class Cat decides to live as the cavemen did so she radically alters her diet and gives up modern conveniences....not an easy task. "

" I enjoyed this book because it showed a girl's struggle with her weight and how she overcame that problem. I think the grudge was a lot but I guess it is what is. "

" My faith in contemporary YA fiction has been restored. (ebook checked out from the library) "

" Amazing! I wonder if it's true? "

" As good as all of the reviews I've read said it would be. Not typically the type of book I would pick to read, but grabbed me from the beginning. Short chapters and relatable, realistic characters are just two of the many things that make this such a compelling read. "

" This was a very inspiring and thought provoking book. "

" Good book to read probably for a teenaged girl. "

" Could be Yet Another Book About Fatty Teen Girl, but saves itself and is enjoyable. Narrator seems a bit young for how old she's supposed to be sometimes (17), but overall funny and engaging. "

" I thought this was clever and engaging. I oscillated between 3 and 4 stars because although I really enjoyed the book, I hate when true fiction is infused with propoganda. It's a strong word, but I thought it was pushing an agenda a bit. Still, Cat was funny and relatable. I enjoyed the read. "

" Really good YA book. Fast read. Loved it! "

" Book 25 of 100 in 2011. Quote: "It's funny how you can be so stupid and not realize it until you've already gone too far." "

" Quick teen read about a girl who switches to a hominid diet and loses lots of weight. I think the plot was a bit shallow and predictable. "

" A science-turned-self improvement project forces Cat to examine her angry feelings about a childhood friend. "

" I was very pleasantly surprised by this book. The book started out fast and really read very quickly until about 3/4 of the way through. It was slow for just a little bit and then finished off strong. The ending is pretty predictable, but good. Overall, this book was a nice, quick, light read. "
