Dawn Lerman

I am reading MY FAT DAD by Dawn Lerman and I can't put it down. My mind has a running list of people I must tell to read this book. I feel like I have met a long lost cousin or sibling. I am learning a lot about my childhood and family by reading about hers. We both grew up in the MADMEN era with a loving grandmother who saved our life. We both grew up Jewish although she knew it and I did not. We both grew up with unhealthy food-obsessed families except my family ate at the table. I will write more soon. Meanwhile I am savoring each chapter. GET THIS BOOK!
