Stuck in Downward Dog
Stuck in Downward Dog - Chantel Simmons
Thank you Key Porter and Chantel Simmons for my lovely signed copy of this book from BookExpo 2007. It was pretty good. The beginning was slow, and the parenthetical explanations of Canadian references were frustrating. When you read a book set in the UK, they don't keep saying things like the equivalent of Wall Street, etc. to explain local references. Anyway, that tapered off quickly, and I stopped being peeved.
I loved when Mara deluded herself into thinking she was losing weight, and her clothes were all tight because she kept wrecking them in the laundry. When she wore a maternity dress as a top, it was too funny. The ending was highly satisfying.

"I loved when Mara deluded herself into thicking she was losing weight"
Is thicking a pun, a spelling error or some kind freudian slip? I can't tell.
Touche! She was thickening, but I meant "thinking". Typo corrected, smart guy.
