The heartwarming new novel from the sparkling Laura Dockrill, introducing Bluebelle, and her moving, hilarious take on food, body image and how we look after ourselves and others.

It’s a food diary. I have to tell the truth. That’s the point.

Bluebelle, aka BB, aka Big Bones – is a sixteen-year-old girl encouraged to tackle her weight even though she’s perfectly happy, thank you, and getting on with her life and in love with food. 

Then a tragedy in the family forces BB to find a new relationship with her body and herself. . .

Tuck in for best mates, belly laughs, boys and the best Bakewell tart

This book is definitely what it says on the cover: “a beautiful love letter to friends, family and food.” It is extremely relatable when it comes to the food parts. The way it is written is quirky and delightful! I think overweight people would love this book as it shows real life struggles for everyone.

This book is a really good read. It’s about a girl who loves food. Her doctor says she has to keep a food diary. She’s not impressed!
