Hunger by Roxane Gay
**** 4 stars
Review
This is another great book by Roxane, about her unhealthy relationship with food.
I have never had a good relationships with food and I struggle on a daily basis with my choices.
Though when Roxane started to binge eat and put on a lot of weight, it was because of a traumatic experience that she went through when she was a young girl and she just wanted to feel safe again. She thought she could do this by trying to make herself less attractive to the opposite sex.
A very moving and thought provoking read. One which I definitely could relate to and one which, I am sure could help a lot of people come to terms with an eating disorder and to start to get help.
