Moose by Stephanie Klein
Tells the story of the author's adolescence. This book deals with what we all go through: finding friends, learning about ourselves, and realizing that who we are has remarkably little to do with our waistline. It is of interest to women of all ages and those who has ever felt like the underdog.
"Candid.. inspiring ... With vivid characterizations, spot-on locale descriptions and sly jokes at her own expense, Klein offers an original and touching take on the all-too-common problem of childhood obesity." -- Kirkus Reviews "The memoir, which mixes painful revelations with amusing anecdotes, teems with details, like the sixth-grade Spanish class in which the teacher told students to identify themselves as fat or thin." -- New York Times "A candid, touching memoir ... It'll make you laugh-and cry." -- hungry-girl.com "Klein intersperses surprisingly touching observations with crackling, punny lexicon. Grade: A-" -- Entertainment Weekly, for Straight Up and Dirty "Klein is a talented writer who tells the story of her love life with boldness and irreverence." -- USA Today, for Straight Up and Dirty "Klein's appeal comes not just from her nocturnal wonderings, but from her relentless plumbing of what went wrong in her twenties and how those mistakes inform her present." -- Elle, for Straight Up and Dirty "Klein's sense of humor is downright wicked...a great, fun read." -- Publishers Weekly, for Straight Up and Dirty "Nothing, it seems, is too private not to share with ... Ms. Klein's legions of followers. And that is exactly how they like it... [She is] the Carrie Bradshaw of New York bloggers." -- New York Times, for Straight Up and Dirty "Hilarious ... perfect beach-blanket reading." -- New York Post, for Straight Up and Dirty "You could call her 'a real-life Carrie Bradshaw,' but it wouldn't do Klein justice. With a fearless voice, the blogger weaves a memoir filled with heartbreak and humor... a compelling writer." -- People, for Straight Up and Dirty
