The Middlesteins by Jami Attenberg

I'm very busy this week and don't have the time to write up a thoughtful review. I will say that I had high expectations for The Middlesteins because Jamie Attenberg is well-respected by some of my favorite authors. My expectations made me even sadder that the book was not to my liking. I'll give Attenberg some grace because The Middlesteins was published in 2012, but the way Attenberg deals with writing about food and fat characters really gave me the ick... I'm willing to give her other books a shot, though, so we'll see.
