When her mother succumbs to pressure from her new husband and sends Vivian off to weight-loss camp over the Christmas holiday, Vivian is mad as hell and determined to treat Camp Featherlite with utter contempt every second of the three weeks she must spend there. She is also a star athlete, smart as hell, and utterly fearless. Vivian Ellenshawn, as the book jacket attests, is fat. More importantly, she raises some serious questions about the American fixation on weight loss and just how far some folks, especially impressionable teenagers, will go to attain society’s definition of the ‘‘perfect’’ size. I knew there were going to be losses (it’s a zombie novel!), and the author makes you care about every single one. Personally, I’ve never understood the appeal of zombie stories, but I was intrigued by Devos’s premise and completely won over by her characters. Just when you thought no one needed another zombie novel, author Kelly Devos gives readers Eat Your Heart Out, a terror-filled foray into weight-loss camp that will not be soon forgotten. ![]()
