About the author
Stephanie McAfee
10 books187 followersLike Elvis, I was born in Tupelo, Mississippi. And while I'm not the King (or Queen) of anything that I know of, I do have a white steed, a noble knight, and a royal court. Ok, I'm lying. I have a brown chiweenie, a buck wild toddler, and if we line our "Cars" cars up just right...
I have lived in the Wild Wild West, but don’t live there anymore because I discovered that some people belong in the south and I am one of those people. Humidity, as it turns out, is not such a bad thing after all. Neither are thunderstorms. Plus I have a deep love and genuine appreciation for normal sweet tea, fresh seafood, SEC football, and large bodies of salty water. So now I live in Florida.
I have a B.A. in English from the University of Mississippi and I'm a life-long fan of the Ole Miss Rebels. I also have an M.A. in Secondary Education from the University of Alabama, which gives me the right yell “Roll Tide!” every now and then. Despite my solid educational background, my work history is what you might call checkered (if you wanted to be nice). It ranges from dispatching at my father’s trucking company to teaching high school Spanish to temping at a technology consulting firm in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Another thing about me: One day, I decided to write a book. It’s called Diary of a Mad Fat Girl and I think it’s pretty funny. Maybe you might think it's funny too!

This was a funny little read, perfect for this time of year. I love Ace and the fact that she is so human. Best one-liners ever. And I love how she embraces her weight and for the most part, just doesn't give a shit who likes it and who doesn't. What chubby lady hasn't had the though that Ace does? "I need to go on a diet...but dammit, I love food!"
I lover her attitude, her feistiness and I think I'm a little in love with her new boyfriend. Where is my Tate Jackson??

This was definitely the funniest. I love seeing Ace so happy and mature. I really wish the author would continue the series as she was endearing. It was nice to have quick snapshots of where the other main supporting characters are in the lives though.

This is a fun book about a "normal" girl and her misadventures during a winter vacation.

Just okay
A story about an overweight girl and her boyfriend going to ski in Colorado. Okay story. Not going to be a fav. I didn't care for the bad language and as I sad just okay story. Will most likely not read anything else by this author. Other people may love it but not for me.

This series makes me laugh out loud. It's bittersweet to finish one of these books, because I know I'm going to have to wait until another one is published!

It was funny, but Ace Jones is perhaps funnier when she's not happily in love. I think Tate is the right guy for her...but I need her to get up to some antics.

I have completely enjoyed the adventures of Ace Jones --- Mad Fat Girl --- she is funny, and quite real. This is a light, easy read that I would recommend to anyone who wants a good laugh.
