emmareadstoomuch 's review for:
You Are Eating an Orange. You Are Naked.
by Sheung-King
This book is odd.
Not just because of that title (although, sheesh), but because the most interesting parts of it are actually from other stories and books. The original content here: Meh. The analyses of other works and summaries of folktales: Cool, fun, I love em.
I mean, it's not that crazy, and actually I am forced to find it very Relatable, because I too am most interesting for my commentaries (in that the coolest / most unique thing about me is that I write reviews that people read).
So I don't know how much credit to give either the book or myself.
I do like the footnotes and I usually do not, so that's a win, and while often even when I am paying a book the highest compliment I can (writing down quotes from it), I also wrote thoughts I had while reading this one.
That was also cool and new.
Bottom line: A book that makes you think!
