Eating My Feelings: Tales of Overeating, Underperforming, and Coping with My Crazy Family by Mark RosenbergMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
"I've had more ups & down with my weight then Oprah"
I received this book to review from Amazon. By the title, I knew it would be funny & I knew it would be about weight loss.. I was half way wrong on both accounts.
It did have funny parts, but was so overwhelming shadowed by the language... call me a prude...
& the weight loss part wasn't really that much a story of his weight loss. Yeah, he was a chubby kid, but after one summer at 'fat camp' his dad tricked him into going, his weight stayed down. Yeah - he had issues with food, but the story is more about his life as a gay man in New York...
Not the type of book I was planning on reading.
& again, I did find parts funny... but then some parts, I was like "They can say that in a book & not have anyone call them racist?"...
I found myself shaking my head & just saying, "This guy is screwed up" more then anything... it canceled the funny out for me.
Glad I got this one for free...
****LANGUAGE & SEXUAL CONTENT... & just plain right NASTY in parts****
