When Food Is Love: Exploring the Relationship Between Eating and Intimacy by Geneen Roth
4.0
The book shows a different point of view about compulsive eating and makes you meditate and think about your life, your story, and the possible reasons behind your eating disorders. Some parts of it were confusing, mixing the past and the present together way to smoothly. I felt like there was a point in the book where the main idea had been already presented, but it kept being introduced to the reader over and over, only in a different manner, with different examples. It could be a good thing to people who like details and explanations, and a bad thing to people who prefer to go directly to the point. I found it to be very helpful and thoughtful, and I'm really glad my therapist recommended it. It was not perfect, but extremely good and surprising. I don't regret reading it.
