Book Reviews of Hunger Point: A Novel

Book Review: "Hunger Point" hits home..
Summary: 5 Stars

Medoff manages to portray the typical dysfunctional family. Dad is obsesssed with his novelty sales job, and tries and stay out of his overbearing wife's way. Mom would rather be at work, that at home. When she is at home, her main job is watching her daughter's figure. Shelly is the perfect sister. Smart, about to go on to law school, or will the strain of such a perfect life crack her? Finally, Frannie is the thread that holds the family together. The perpetual screw-up; yet the only one who knows what each family member needs.

"Hunger Point" really hits home to me, because I've struggled with my weight all my life. Even now, I still obsess over food so that I don't go back to the heavy girl I was. I'm also unemployed right now, so I heavily sympathize with Frannie.
