Reviews for A Field Guide to Burying Your Parents
Engaging and poignant and heartbreakingly real, Liza Palmer's tale of best friends, true love and just what size happily-ever-after wears is a winning conversation
Jennifer Weiner on CONVERSATIONS WITH THE FAT GIRL
Liza Palmer is definitely one of my new favorite writers!
Meg Cabot
Slick and highly readable
Elle on CONVERSATIONS WITH THE FAT GIRL
A subtly sophisticated romance that outclasses most of the genre's other offerings... If it sounds chick litty, it is, but consider it haute chick lit. Palmer's prose is sharp, her characters are solid and her narrative is laced with moments of graceful sentiment
Publisher's Weekly on SEEING ME NAKED
'Pardon the pun, but CONVERSATIONS WITH THE FAT GIRL is far from lightweight. Its message about self image and the power of attitude in making positive change is delivered in a snappy fashion. In a word: genuine.'
Herald Sun
Smart, funny and heartbreakingly honest.
Johanna Edwards, bestselling author of THE NEXT BEST THING
