A review by charlotteg
Hunger by Roxane Gay

4.0

Gay's Hunger was incredibly powerful and incredibly heavy. At times I wanted to stop because it was so hard to read emotionally, but I couldn't tear myself away. I certainly gained new perspective from this book. My one critique is that the book was very repetitive at times. Perhaps it would have served better as a collection of essays instead of a memoir. The book did not progress as a linear timeline anyway.
