Mates Dates Chocolate Cheats (Audible Audio Edition) Cathy Hopkins Nicky Talacko Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Books Reviews
Mates, Dates and Chocolate Cheats was definately a great addition to and already fantastic series. Izzie maybe the self-confident one , but all girls still have insecurities. Izzie thinks that she has become very fat, and decides to try all different fad diets and still hasn't lost weight. Watch her try all out until she finds one that works. I definately reccommend this book to all.
I really had to force myself to finish this one (I usually love the Mates, Dates books). It was boring and after 3 chapters I got really tired of Izzie's whining about her weight. She only gained about 8 pounds and was freaking out. I had to force myself to finish this one. Not only was it boring it was too preachy as well. I felt like Hopkins was trying to warn us of the dangers of dieting in a very heavy handed way.
This book is NOT recommended!
This book in particular I found very funny . Since the girls came back from Florence Izzie Realises she has put o some weight . She tries every kind of diet known to man and tries to find one that will make the weight fall off of her. Her initiall reaction was that she looked like a whale . All in all I found this book a great read. I also recomend that you read Mates Dates And Great Escapes first so you understand all aspects of the book . Hannah Johnston , Glasgow
I just finished this book and found it desirable, light and comedic.I have read most of the books in the series and only have a few that I couldn't find at my library. In this book, Izzie is struggling with the same problem that hundreds of thousands worry about every day her weight. But, in the book, Cathy Hopkins makes an mix between the struggle and comedy. Through her problems, she is also trying to find time to spend with her friends (mates, as this is an British book), to do her best in trying out for a TV Teen Talk Show and to catch the eye of the nothing-less-than-perfect Gabriel, who works there. Izzie tries all the crash diets she can think of and joins the gym. And yet, by starving herself, she doesn't lose the eight pounds she gained over holiday. In one particularly hilarious part in the book Izzie is drinking slim shakes and she has a terrible problem with gas, "Clearly I wasn't the only one as an elderly lady in the corner, let one rip. She didn't seem fazed by it at all" (148-149). I like this part in the book because even though it is a serious subject for Izzie, the author makes it a light read. When I had extra time I read this during class and kept trying to stifle my laughter, because the odd looks received from my peers. This is definitely a book worth reading and once you read it, you will make yourself read the whole rest of the series (Books in Series=At Least 13)
I recommend this book (and series) to teenage girls because you can really relate to the characters. Many girls struggle with their weight, but if they read this book, they might feel better about themselves. Also, this book shows girls what is a healthy choice to lose weight, and what is an unhealthy waste of time. The four girls in this series have many everyday problems that girls, mainly in their teens can relate to... including boys, family, and school. Also, this series is great because so many surprises occur that keep the pages turning. This is a great book and a great series...so I recommend this teen read.
This books starts immediately after the end of the last one. Izzie and company are back from their trip and Izzie discovers a pair of her pants are too tight. No, her mother did not shrink them, she has gained weight. A little gained during the holidays and a little gained in Italy and Izzie's self image takes a serious hit.
For most of the book Izzie goes through the whole catalog of ways to lose weight while her friends keep trying to get her to stop obsessing. Added to the mix is a new television talk show for teens. The girls decide to try and get in on it. Add lots of talk of boys and their merits (or lack thereof) and you get the rest of the story.
I rather enjoyed this volume of MATES but part of me felt the author was going in a different direction. There was so much talk about weight loss methods and what is wrong with them that I felt this was more of a cautionary tale than just the further adventures of the mates. But is does manage to not be heavy handed in its preaching so I did not feel it detracted from the story. All in all it was a good story with some good solid advice.
I bought it for my 13 and 15-year old daughters, they just love the series and have read all of them
