Resumen del Editor

Named a Best Book of the Year by Entertainment Weekly, Vogue, Time, Esquire, BookPage, and more

This darkly hilarious and “delicious new novel that ravishes with sex and food” (The Boston Globe) from the acclaimed author of The Pisces and So Sad Today is a “precise blend of desire, discomfort, spirituality, and existential ache” (BuzzFeed).

Rachel is 24, a lapsed Jew who has made calorie restriction her religion. By day, she maintains an illusion of existential control through obsessive food rituals while working as an underling at a Los Angeles talent management agency. At night, she pedals to nowhere on the elliptical machine. Rachel is content to carry on subsisting - until her therapist encourages her to take a 90-day communication detox from her mother, who raised her in the tradition of calorie counting.

Rachel soon meets Miriam, a zaftig young Orthodox Jewish woman who works at her favorite frozen yogurt shop and is intent upon feeding her. Rachel is suddenly and powerfully entranced by Miriam - by her sundaes and her body, her faith and her family - and as the two grow closer, Rachel embarks on a journey marked by mirrors, mysticism, mothers, milk, and honey.

“A ruthless, laugh-out-loud examination of life under the tyranny of diet culture” (Glamour) Broder tells a tale of appetites: physical hunger, sexual desire, spiritual longing, and the ways that we compartmentalize these so often interdependent instincts. Milk Fed is “riotously funny and perfectly profane” (Refinery 29) from “a wild, wicked mind” (Los Angeles Times).

Have some time to spare? All of the audiobooks on this list come in under seven hours, so they’re perfect for a single-session binge or a multi-day journey. While some may say the longer the book the better, we believe there is a lot of value in short audiobooks. Some of the best nonfiction is short and powerful, while short sci-fi stories and fantasy novels are just the thing when you want to escape the world but don't have time to get absorbed in a 30-hour tome. Time and attention spans are short these days, so we've got you covered with some of the best audiobooks under seven hours across multiple genres.

Graphic and beautiful

This novel is graphic in it’s descriptiveness, unflinchingly honest, and still somehow very soft. Rachel is a true anti hero who’s journey to self love and self tolerance I was immediately and deeply invested in

Super unique book perfect for audible

This book was an incredible first person story of a woman whose thoughts are too taboo for most. This is my new favorite book. The narration by the author was the cherry on top. The northeast accent especially made perfect sense. 10/10

So real.

The POV character has so many unkind, perverse, and strange thoughts. It was so challenging and uncomfortable to be in her brain but I truly was immersed. I think about this often.

kept me wanting more

This book spoke to me. It touched on many topics including eating disorders, maternal love, sex, and love. I didn't love the ending but I would still 100% recommend.

I'm fed.

I liked how realistic the descriptions were on woman's bodies/smells/tastes, the personal struggles of ( the author herself I'm assuming) and the explanations of the religious undertones in this book. Definatlely didn't sugarcoat which I appreciate. There was so very personal things that were discussed in this book so kudos to the author for being so transparent. Overall great book. Kept me listening atleast.

Very Lena Dunham-y

A few chuckles, an empowering story about ED, lesbian romance but 100% borderline personality disorder and the HBO show girls tied into one.

Yucky mother issues

I have no comprehension why thr smell of excrement was a turn on but that's just me. Still, it's worth a listen for Rachel's courage.

Just Fine

Was not as entertaining as The Pisces. And the calorie counting was triggering. She has mastered the ennui voice of the White Girl Angeleno. But I just had been hoping for more fun in this story.

Loved the story!

I loved the story but honestly I don't like how it ended. Too quick for my taste. I still have a lot of questions. It was still a great read!

IDK it was weird

The lead character’s obsession with calorie counting was annoying to say the least. It made me kind of nauseous. Also, the very detailed descriptions of sexual encounters was a bit over the top for a novel. It felt more like erotic fiction than a novel. The plot was interesting and overarching themes were relatable, but all in all I would not recommend this book.
