One of Nylon's "50 Literature We Can't Wait to Read in 2017" One of Chicago Reader's "Books We Can't Wait to Read in 2017" A father looks for his addict child while grappling with his own selections as a mother or father (so when a end user of sorts). In Lindsay Hunter's achingly funny, fiercely honest second book, Eat ONLY ONCE You're Starving, we meet Greg - an chubby 58-year-old and the father of Greg Junior, GJ, who may have been absent for three weeks. GJ's been an addict his entire adult life, disappearing for times at the same time, but for some reason this absence seems different, and Greg has convinced himself that he's the only one who can find his child. So he rents an RV and drives from his home in West Virginia to the outskirts of Orlando, Florida, the last place GJ was seen. Once we travel down the pavements of the bizarroland that is Florida, the urgency to find GJ little by little recedes in to the history, and the truths about Greg's flaws - as a dad, a husband, a man - are uncovered. In Eat ONLY ONCE You're Starving, Hunter elicits complex sympathy on her behalf characters, requesting the listener to have a closer go through the way we think about habit - why we demonize the junkie but turn a blind eyeball to drinking a touch too much or eating too much - and the fallout of failing ourselves.
