📚 Book Review 📚 Q: How is your November going? Mine has taken a bit of a swerve into sick territory (don't worry, we are all doing fine) but this means I get some extra time to work on my #NonfictionNovember TBR for this month. "What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Fat" by Aubrey Gordon gets a whole hearted ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ out of 5 from me. Gordon takes the time to educate with a mixture of personal anecdotes, academic research, and cultural references that bring fatphobia and the systemic issues in our society to light. She makes a point of highlighting what thin, "straight" sized people don't see (or don't want to see), and it's not only sobering, but heartbreaking. It isn't simply a plea for the world to reckon with the antagonistic world that surrounds fat people, but a call to action. We all have the power to work towards a world where people are not made to feel less for any reason, and we need to start doing that. Now. Thanks for reading. 💛 *** #AubreyGordon #bibliophile #bookreccomendation #bookreview #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookworm #contemporary #igbook #nonfiction #nonfictionnovember2022 #readersofig #readersofinstagram #WhatWeDontTalkAboutWhenWeTalkAboutFat (at Elsewhere) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClSD3UfrJ5x/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
