Dietland (Tie-In)

An AMC ORIGINAL SERIES and named Best Book of the Year by Entertainment Weekly, Bustle, Amazon, Kirkus Reviews, and others. Dietland is a gutsy, stinging satire of our beauty-obsessed society.

Plum Kettle does her best not to be noticed, because when you’re fat, to be noticed is to be judged. With her job answering fan mail for a teen magazine, she is biding her time until her weight-loss surgery. But when a mysterious woman in colorful tights and combat boots begins following her, Plum falls down a rabbit hole into the world of Calliope House–an underground community of women who reject society’s rules–and is forced to confront the real costs of becoming beautiful.

At the same time, a guerilla group begins terrorizing a world that mistreats women, and Plum becomes entangled in a sinister plot. The consequences are explosive.

A giddy revenge fantasy that will shake up your thinking and burrow under your skin (Entertainment Weekly), Dietland takes on the beauty industry, gender inequality, and our weight-loss obsession–with fists flying.

Audacious and gutsy and heartbreaking–Dietland completely blew me away. –Jennifer Weiner
