A hilarious and inspiring guide to being a #brave, bikini-wearing badass, from the actress, comedian, and podcaster extraordinaire.
If you've ever seen a fat person post a bikini shot on social media, you already know that they are #verybrave, because apparently existing in a fat body in public is #brave. I, Nicole Byer, wrote this book to 1. share my impressive bikini collection and my hot body with the world and 2. help other people feel #brave by embracing their body as it is. In this book, I share my journey to becoming #brave, give you my hot tips and tricks—on how to find the perfect bikini, how to find your own #bravery, and how to handle haters—and serve you over 100 bikini looks.

"Basically a bikini look book showing off [Byer's] beautiful figure in a hundred different colorful swimmies. She also shares her body-acceptance journey and gives tips on how others can find their own bravery, handle haters, and embrace their bodies." —Cosmopolitan
"This book is a hilariously empowering take on self-love." —Parade
"And while Byer, the comedian who hosts Netflix's Nailed It!, has filled the book with captions that are funny enough to prompt a reader to actually chuckle aloud, inspiring others is at the book's core." —USA Today

      Byer, comedian and host of the bad-baking Netflix show Nailed It, is a self-described fat lady (not curvy, plus-sized, or other polite euphemism) whose public bikini-wearing journey began on her Instagram, where she would post pictures captioned #veryfat #verybrave. In this coffee table-style book, she advises readers embarking on their own journeys; namely, that they shouldn't change anything except self-perception and that "something new takes a hot-ass minute to get used to." In lists of delightful non-sequiturs, she explains the steps to bikini shopping (final step: live) and how to deal with those affronted by your #bravery. She talks a little bit about her childhood as a fat kid with undiagnosed ADHD and how that contributed to her feeling wrong in her body, but the main draw are the photos of Byer in over 100 different bikinis, portraits in which photographer Kim Newmoney captures the author's frenetic spirit and winking self-help message. Fans of Byer's over-the-top energy and raunchy sense of humor will smile as she laughs in the face of haters who are insulted at her very (fat, brave) existence.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2020, American Library Association.)
