“Add me to what is sure to be a very long list of Diana Spechler fans. Skinny will be my go-to recommendation all year for anyone who wants smart, endearing, beautifully written women’s fiction.” — Allison Winn Scotch, New York Times bestselling author of The One That I Want and Time of My Life
“Spechler’s meditation on the nature of hunger is both touching and surprising, as Skinny boldly explores the connection between our emotional and physical appetites. Her characters and their stories stayed with me long after I put her book down.” — Janelle Brown, bestselling author of All We Ever Wanted Was Everything and This Is Where We Live
“Diana Spechler writes like a dream. In Skinny, she masterfully explores the relationship between food and pain, between love and heartbreak. And what Spechler most magically captures is the elusive feeling of longing. And how, on its other side, we sometimes find what we needed all along.” — Laura Dave, author of The Divorce Party and London Is The Best City in America
