Synopsis: It’s time to bare it all about bodies!

 We all experience the world in a body, but we don’t usually take the time to explore what it really means to have and live within one. Just as every person has a unique personality, every person has a unique body, and every body tells its own story.
 In Body Talk, thirty-seven writers, models, actors, musicians, and artists share essays, lists, comics, and illustrations—about everything from size and shape to scoliosis, from eating disorders to cancer, from sexuality and gender identity to the use of makeup as armor. Together, they contribute a broad variety of perspectives on what it’s like to live in their particular bodies—and how their bodies have helped to inform who they are and how they move through the world.
 Come on in, turn the pages, and join the celebration of our diverse, miraculous, beautiful bodies! (Synopsis from Goodreads)

My Thoughts: This was a really good collection all about all our different kinds of bodies. It was full of different kinds of stories, some where funny, some were sad, some made me think. I liked all the diverse voices and the variety of stories. I also enjoyed the variety of formats in this.

This is not the type of book that I usually read, but I enjoyed reading something different. It contains a lot of recognizable authors, as well as celebrities. If this topic sounds interesting to you, I'd definitely recommend checking it out!
