As a young, queer, plus-size person, Essie Dennis has spent a lot of time feeling like they weren't enough - not queer enough, not feminine enough, not perfect enough. When they took to social media to share how they felt, they were overwhelmed by how many others felt the same. I look too masculine to be non-binary I look too feminine to be a lesbian Am I too fat for drag? Inviting you to challenge accepted beauty standards and the concept of 'the perfect body', Essie takes everything they have learned on their journey to self-acceptance and body satisfaction to help guide you towards loving your queer body. From gender, sexuality and reclaiming your body, through to food, politics, social media and fatphobia, this radical book starts a conversation about body image and mental health that queer people are so often left out of. Fiercely and unapologetically written, and with honest advice and powerful stories from a diverse range of queer people throughout, this is an inspiring and necessary book that will show you that you are enough.

With great talent Dennis has given us a well written, thoughtful, easy going and informative book that makes the reader feel both comfortable and "seen", possibly for the first time surrounding such topics . The layout of the book was carefully chosen to allow readers to follow along easily and thoughtfully.
I cannot recommend this book enough. Whether you yourself identify as queer, or know someone who does, this book is an absolute gift and a wonderful well of knowledge sure to become an instant sensation!
Thank you to netgalley for providing an e-copy for me to read and leave my honest opinion with all of you. This book has done a lot for me and I hope that everyone who needs this picks it up as soon as possible. ( )
