Since Fat Forward Books launched last year, a few people have reached out for specific recommendations—but did you know Bindery has a "Get a Rec" feature designed just for that purpose?

If you're not sure what to read for Fat Liberation Month (or at anytime throughout the year), but you're looking for a certain vibe or flavor, you can fill out the form using the button in the upper left corner of the screen to request a book recommendation from yours truly! Want to read adult romance with a fat FMC? Looking for horror with a fat protagonist? Need fat-positive picture books for kids in your life?

I've got you covered!

And if you don't have anything that specific in mind, you can upload an image that captures the feeling you're seeking from your next read, and I'll do my best to match it.

1. Visit Fat Forward Books on Bindery Books. (You're already here! Step 1 done!)

2. Follow/join the community at any tier—including FREE!

3. Click "Get a Rec" and fill out the form!

Who's recommending books?

All Fat Forward Books recommendations will come from me, page creator and curator Samantha Puc (she/they). I'm a fat, disabled, lesbian writer and editor whose work focuses primarily on LGBTQ+ and fat representation in pop culture. I'm an Eisner Award-winning and Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic whose work has been featured in the award-winning Fat and Queer anthology and all across the internet. My expertise has been sought for sensitivity editing, podcasts, and more.

Outside of my work at FFB, I'm also the Blog Editor at the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance (NAAFA). My memoir is currently on submission.
