From being bullied at school to being objectified and humiliated in her dating life, Stephanie&rsquo;s response to discrimination has always been to change the narrative around body-image and what we see as beautiful.In her debut book, Fattily Ever After, Stephanie speaks openly and courageously about her own experience on navigating life as a black, plus-sized woman &ndash; telling it how it really is &ndash; and how she has managed to find self-acceptance in a world where judgement and discrimination are rife.Featuring stories of every day misogynoir and being fetishized, to navigating the cesspit of online dating and experiencing loneliness, Stephanie shares her thoughts on the treatment of black women throughout history, the marginalisation of black, plus-sized women in the media (even within the body-positivity movement) whilst drawing on wisdom from other black fat liberation champions along the way. Peppered with insightful tips and honest advice and boldly illustrated throughout, this inspiring and powerful book is essential reading for a generation of black, plus-sized women, helping them to live their life openly, unapologetically and with confidence.

The Hidden Stories Behind Our Festive Traditions

Marisa Morea

This vibrant book illustrates the failures and fairytales of the musical couples that came together to give us hope about everlasting love.Author Marisa Morea takes us through it all with her playful illustrations and wry storytelling style: from when Leonard Cohen met Janis Joplin in the elevator of the Chelsea Hotel, to when Debbie Harry laid eyes on Chris Stein in a crowd in 1974, to the public fights and passionate reconciliations of Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin... there are stories of drugs, drink, and brutal betrayal, but also of true love and old-fashioned romance.Travelling through all the feels, fixations, and heartbreaks that co-wrote the golden eras of pop and rock music, we relive the best of them with Ike and Tina Turner, Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain, John Lennon and Yoko Ono, June Carter and Johnny Cash, and so many more.
