The picture was worse than I thought.
Naked Neanderthals.

Cat is many things. She's funny. She's smart - one of the smartest in her class. She's a fantastic cook. She loves science (particularly bug related science.) But skinny she is not.

So when she gets assigned a picture of Naked Neanderthals and is told to ake a project out of it, she freaks out a bit - until she looks closely at the woman in the picture. Cat would kill to be her.

Or, perhaps, just make a kick ass science project.

I remember one of my authors mentioning this book as their favorite so far this year. I put it on my list.

I now know why they loved it so much.

Fat Cat was fan-freaking-tastic. The characters were amazingly well developed, the project interesting and informative without being in-your-face, the plot line well created...

The only fault was that the love plot line was awfully predictable. But that's okay, because I couldn't put it down - this novel rocks. It's made my Favorite Books of '09 list.

Go read it. DO IT.

That's all.

Overall Rating & Final Comments: 10/10. Go buy it or check it out of the library. Totally worth the money and the time.
Cover Comments: I didn't notice that it was squeezing a book until I looked closely. So clever; love it!
