I must say that I really enjoyed it and cannot believe that it took me so long to finally read this author! I liked Cannie right away and could empathize with all the things that she goes through over the course of this story. I have had a copy for well over 10 years so it has been quite the wait. I am so glad that I finally got around to reading this book. And Cannie - who never knew that Bruce saw her as a larger woman, or thought that loving her was an act of courage - is plunged into misery, and the most amazing year of her life. 'Loving a larger woman is an act of courage in our world,' Bruce has written in a national woman's magazine. She has made a tenuous peace with her body and she even felt okay about ending her relationship with her boyfriend Bruce. She loves her apartment and her commodious, quilt-lined bed.
But she loves her job, her friends, her dog and her life. Sure, her mother has come charging out of the closet, and her father has long since dropped out of her world. And for the past twenty-eight years, things have been tripping along nicely for Cannie. The smart, sharp, plus-sized reporter was perfectly happy writing about other people's lives for her local newspaper. Published by Simon and Schuster on April 2, 2002Ĭannie Shapiro never wanted to be famous. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the Library, Publisher.
