SKINNY WOMEN ARE EVIL

New York Times Best-Seller

Comedienne Mo'Nique, the bold, classy sitcom star, Queen of Comedy, and two-time NAACP Image Award winner, is at it again. This time she proves once and for all that Skinny Women Are Evil. Mo'Nique shares her tales of frustration in a world designed for the skinny, and lets us in on the tricks and manipulation that finally led her to declare the truth about the real weight-challenged. From travel, exercise, and raising kids, to shopping, dining out, and sex, she tackles the everyday things that make life tough for Fabulous and Thick (F.A.T.) girls.

“Mo’Nique’s funniness is a million levels above funny. She’s so funny there hasn’t been a word to describe her talent. They say laughing is one of the biggest relievers of stress. Mo’Nique has been my stress reliever for years. – Shaquille O’Neal

“Mo’Nique is straight crazy.” – Steve Harvey

SKINNY COOKS CAN'T BE TRUSTED

NAACP Image Award-nominated Book

In Skinny Cooks Can't Be Trusted, Mo'Nique's fondest food memories (like her mama's stuffed fish that blew up in the oven but made it to the table anyway) are accompanied by cooking tips (when in doubt, taste it to make sure), food strategies (gather everything in one place so you don't tire yourself out runnin' around the kitchen), and "what to wear if you're gonna go there" (because if done right, good food can lead to good lovin'!).

“It’s no secret that Mo’Nique is a ‘Queen of Comedy’. Now, with Skinny Cooks Can’t Be Trusted, she’s proving that she’s a queen of cooking, too. Girlfriend can cook with me anytime.” – Patti LaBelle

BEACON HILLS HIGH

Getting into Millwood High, the "tightest" high school in Baltimore, is all that's been consuming thirteen-year-old F.A.T. (Fabulous And Thick, that is) Eboni Michelle Imes. When she's accepted, all that she can think about are four years of fun with her best friends, Michelle, Yolanda, and Charisse--the TTC (the Too Tight Crew). But life has other plans for Eboni. When her father finally lands his dream job, everyone is excited--except Eboni. While Dad's new business venture means moving the family to glamorous Los Angeles, for Eboni it means moving away from her friends, her crush Vincent, and everything she has ever known. A charming coming-of-age story that deals with common adolescent issues such as body image, being the "new girl" in school, and adjusting to a new neighborhood, Beacon Hills High is sure to resonate with not only Mo'Nique's young fans, but also teenage girls everywhere.
