Her father is a cult novelist and living legend. Her mother is a fashionable socialite. And her brother is the rising star of the LA literary scene. It’s no wonder Elisabeth Page feels intimidated.
It wouldn’t be so bad if her own life wasn’t frozen in time. Romantically, she’s still involved with her childhood sweetheart – a journalist who she barely sees anymore, let alone trusts. And despite working for one of LA’s hottest restaurants, her five-year plan to run her own patisserie has morphed into an eleven-year plan to nowhere.
But then she meets Daniel, who finally gives her a taste of how incredible her future really could be – if only she could drop everything and let him see her as she really is…
But can Daniel ever be more than just flavour of the month? Elisabeth is about to find out.

Reviews
Slick and highly readable
'A subtly sophisticated romance that outclasses most of the genre's other offerings... If it sounds chick litty, it is, but consider it haute chick lit. Palmer's prose is sharp, her characters are solid and her narrative is laced with moments of graceful sentiment'
PRAISE FOR CONVERSATIONS WITH THE FAT GIRL:
'Engaging and poignant and heartbreakingly real, Liza Palmer's tale of best friends, true love and just what size happily-ever-after wears is a winning conversation'
'Pardon the pun, but CONVERSATIONS WITH THE FAT GIRL is far from lightweight. Its message about self image and the power of attitude in making positive change is delivered in a snappy fashion. In a word: genuine.'
Palmer's likable characters and snappy dialogue make this novel stand out from the crowd, and it's sure to attract fans of Jennifer Weiner...
Smart, funny and heartbreakingly honest.
