Våra experter hjälper dig eftersöka "Big Girl" - utan extra kostnad

Glansholms Antikvariat har många tusentals böcker på lager - och över 10 miljoner böcker hos våra underleverantörer. Vi har en unik service till dig - efterlys boken och våra experter eftersöker den åt dig och återkommer inom några dagar.

Vad kommer boken att kosta? Normalpriserna för efterlysta böcker ligger mellan 120 kr och 380 kr beroende på utgåva, skick, tillgång, etc. Vi kan inte lämna ett pris förrän vi bedömt det enskilda exet. Har vi boken inne kan det ibland bli billigare och rariteter har ofta ett högre värde, att en bok är kostsam hindrar oss inte från att eftersöka och reservera den för våra kunder.

Är en efterlysning bindande? Nej, naturligtvis får du se bild, pris och skickbedömning innan du bestämmer dig. Men en efterlysning innebär ofta att vi låter ta in boken på lager och vi är därför naturligtvis tacksamma om du är seriöst intresserad och återkommer när vi kontaktar dig via epost.

Vänligen gör en efterlysning per bok! Varje bok behöver ett eget referensnummer för att vi ska kunna hantera efterlysningen.

Vi behandlar inte efterlysningar av ordinarie kurslitteratur.

Big Girl

Av Danielle Steel

Bok- presentation:	Big Girl
Författar- presentation:	Danielle Steel

A chubby little girl with blond hair, blue eyes, and ordinary looks, Victoria Dawson has always felt out of place in her family, especially in body-conscious L.A. Her father, Jim, is tall and slender, and her mother, Christina, is a fine-boned, dark-haired beauty. Both are self-centered, outspoken, and disappointed by their daughter’s looks. When Victoria is six, she sees a photograph of Queen Victoria, and her father has always said she looks just like her. After the birth of Victoria’s perfect younger sister, Gracie, her father liked to refer to his firstborn as “our tester cake.” With Gracie, everyone agreed that Jim and Christina got it right.

While her parents and sister can eat anything and not gain an ounce, Victoria must watch everything she eats, as well as endure her father’s belittling comments about her body and see her academic achievements go unacknowledged. Ice cream and oversized helpings of all the wrong foods give her comfort, but only briefly. The one thing she knows is that she has to get away from home, and after college in Chicago, she moves to New York City.

Landing her dream job as a high school teacher, Victoria loves working with her students and wages war on her weight at the gym. Despite tension with her parents, Victoria remains close to her sister. And though they couldn’t be more different in looks, they love each other unconditionally. But regardless of her accomplishments, Victoria’s parents know just what to say to bring her down. She will always be her father’s “big girl,” and her mother’s constant disapproval is equally unkind.

When Grace announces her engagement to a man who is an exact replica of their narcissistic father, Victoria worries about her sister’s future happiness, and with no man of her own, she feels like a failure once again. As the wedding draws near, a chance encounter, an act of stunning betrayal, and a family confrontation lead to a turning point.

Behind Victoria is a lifetime of hurt and neglect she has tried to forget, and even ice cream can no longer dull the pain. Ahead is a challenge and a risk: to accept herself as she is, celebrate it, and claim the victories she has fought so hard for and deserves. Big girl or not, she is terrific and discovers that herself.
