Artichoke's Heart

Really enjoyable young adult novel. Over-weight girl learns to love herself, exercise, and make friends. But it isn't trite; neither she nor everything is perfect in the end. It's a great journey of a character that is satisfying, but you can imagine will continue. My daughter read it after me and says, "It's a good book!"

I love this book. I can easily compare Rosemary's smart-aleck and insecure additive to my own. I've read this book so many times that I practically know every word. Reading Rosemary's journey and everything she experiences is a true inspiration. This book is perfect for teenage girls who are experiencing any weight issues or just having problems with life. I gave this book five stars because I believe it's a great coping book and Rosemary is very relatable.

My sister struggled from an eating disorder so after reading the first page I felt like I was entering my sister's psyche. It was a completely honest story of the mindset of a girl that can't control her eating. I love Rosemary's snarky comments and the way she's able to laugh at herself in certain situation. It made me laugh and cry and feel every emotion in-between. I loved Kyle and how he saw past her "fat" and into her heart. Don't you wish there were more guys out there that didn't see just the surface?

this book was funny, and I enjoyed her take on the cliques in southern high schools-VERY accurate. Being a Tennessean and feeling like a social outcast were two of the things I could identify with.SPOILER ALERT!!!I was left wanting more after she lost the weight and got the guy. My personal thoughts are that there wasn't enough emphasis on the family dynamics.

Good book with lots of realistic issues but I did not like the way the main character lost weight, does not send a good message.

I loved this book. it has the most amazing story that I have ever read. there are a lot of great words to describe this book like amazing, wonderful, and many many more. if you are thinking of reading this book you should. trust me once you start reading it. you won't be able to but down until you reach the very end.

This book is very good, great author and great story. I had no problems with this book, no glitches, no pages missing, or any extra added pages. Artichoke's Heart is a very realistic point of view kind of book. I guarantee most people will love this book, there are a variety of different emotions that will occur while reading this book. Buying this book from Amazon is great!

Such a good easy read. The story is extremely relatable and I can't remember the last time I read a book that caused me to laugh out loud so frequently.
