God, Broder is such a visceral and vulnerable writer. She takes the human experiences that we tuck away into ourselves and flings back the curtains, saying “yeah that’s gross but so what?” And I think that is what makes her writing so fun and affirming to read. I felt like it got a bit repetitive at the end, though my favorite essay was definitely “Under the anxiety is sadness but who would go under there.” Also Milk Fed is just on a totally different plane from this one, so it’s hard to compare. I don’t think everyone would love this (between the sometimes brutal/gross content and her casual voice) but I feel like this provided so much opportunity to reflect and giggle a lot.
