Naked at Lunch: A Reluctant Nudist's Adventures in the Clothing-Optional World by Mark Haskell Smith

4.0

3.5 stars.

I read this to fulfill the "I feel a breeze- read a book that takes place at a nudist colony or features nudists" task for the GoodReads Summer Reading Challenge: https://www.goodreads.com/blog/show/1251

Journalist Mark Haskell Smith decides to learn more about nudism so he visits various resorts, camps, etc. This book was both funny and informative. Nudism wasn't something Smith ever really saw himself participating in so I related to it on that level but don't know if I would personally ever participate in nudism. The book does bring up things like body image issues and the awkward situations that arise from the "non-sexual nudism" rules in place at nudist resorts.
