Recs if you like Big Beautiful Female Theory...

every book that has ever been longlisted for the stella prize, from 2013-present. the stella prize awards works across poetry, memoir, fiction, non-fiction and graphic works by australian women and non-binary storytellers.

Body liberation, fat positive, anti-diet culture.

List created because I was surprised this didn’t already exist (and if it does please let me know!). Update: @violet.booklover has a beautiful list with even more suggestions!

Trigger warnings: bodies can be a triggering topic. All the books here aim to be anti-diet, and size affirming, but please approach with caution.

Books by Australian authors in a range of genre's. 🤗 I'm passionate about reading local talent amplifying both big and small scale books and authors alongside one another.

An Australian prize that celebrates women and non-binary writers, sign me up. The Stella prize is doing stellar things for the Australian literary scene and that is something I want to get around.
