Book Review of Shadows: The Spiritual Feminist by Amythyst Raine

The Windsor-Essex Fat Babe Squad
I don't live in a place where it's unusual to be fat. I've grown up seeing fat women everywhere, having fat friends and despite a serious lack of shopping options, always feeling like I was fashionable.
