Book Review: When Hungry, Eat by Joanne Fedler
by Guest Author
When Hungry, Eat by Joanne Fedler should be set reading for any woman that has plans to or already has migrated from South Africa to Australia. Joanne has been able to put in to words what most of us have trouble sorting out in our minds.
A book that I initially thought would be entirely about weight loss had me engaged to the point that I had not even finished reading it and I found myself already recommending it to friends.
Joanne, and I say Joanne because I feel like I know her personally, captures her story of weight loss amidst her personal journey of self-discovery with such raw emotion and deep passion that you cant help just wanting to give her a hug. Being a migrant myself I felt as if Id learnt something through the writers journey. The story is written with beautiful metaphor and deep representation. Joanne shares her soul and had me smiling in recollection of my own experiences, even weeping occasionally and then laughing with joy.
This book will remain on my bookshelf and I will return to read it again and again.
