All About Kate

By Josie Laird

When you hate your body

How can you love yourself – or anyone else?

Life is nearly perfect for Kate; the perfect boyfriend and the perfect job. But whatever Luke says, she knows she is too fat. And now, her birth mother has decided to come looking for her.

What surprises will that bring?

 

‘All About Kate is an engaging and thought-provoking debut novel, about a young woman who embarks on a voyage of self-discovery. Josie Laird touches on serious topics with a light touch in this well-crafted book.’

Karen McMillan, author of Brushstrokes of Memory.
