March BOTM ~ Official Review: Eating Bull by Carrie Rubin

[mrlefty0706]

This is a story about an obese teenager named Jeremy, his weight management clinician named Sue and a serial killer named Darwin. Jeremy is obese because of his diet so his overweight mother takes him to a weight management clinic where he meets a team of clinicians that can help Jeremy change his ways. Meanwhile there is an active serial killer targeting obese people. This book is educational and a psychological thriller since there is a serial killer on the loose. Very good review.

This book sounds like the thriller that one needs in life. I am also impressed to see the inclusion of a Public Health officer in a story since that's what I have trained for. I'd love to know how the suing goes and I might learn a thing or two. Great review

[Dent Odhiambo]

I never understand why people bully others. This seems interesting. The books plot is also unique. Great review its detailed.

[Zaynnie]

I've read books about serial killers and why they choose their victims but I've never read one where the killer specifically target obese people, I really want to know his reason for doing that. I'll love to read this book and know more about the characters. Thanks for the great review

[Shaesta Parween]

A psychological drama of an obese adolescent being bullied at school is an entertaining novel to read. The book covers a wide range of topics and shifts between multiple points of view. This is an excellent book for men who appreciate psychological thrillers and creepy settings. Great review.

I wanna thank the reviewer for this phrase, "...this might not be the book for you".

[Sharill Rasowo]

This thriller has a lot going on, losing weight, suing a company, pursuing a serial killer, and so on. It sounds like an exciting read and I am curious about the ending. Congrats on BOTD.

[Ella Oyieko]

Very precise! I love thrillers on serial killers so this is a must read for me.

I enjoyed the book review and this being a psychological thriller got my interest piqued. The story is centered around an obese teenager but there's so much to learn. The serial killer angle amps the thrill. I look forward to finding out how it all ends. Thank you for your interesting review.

[Celestine Lee]

Thank you for the review! This book sounds perfect for my first time reading psychological thrillers! I can relate to the MC about not being in control of my urges though mine is not over food. I also like the way you wrote the review, easy to understand, plenty of descriptions and humor!

[Atieno Magero]

This book has one hell of a storyline. I'm looking forward to reading this book to find out what happens to Jeremy and how things will unfold. Congratulations on making book of the day!

[Linus G]

From the review, I felt the book was boring until I got to the part about the serial killer who was out for obese people. I love those kind of thrillers and plot twist so I'm definitely going to be giving this book a try. Congrats BOTD.

Eating bull must be interesting to read. It is good to know from the review that there are important points to check. Sue must be a character who is enlightening, as brought out from this review. It is good to know that the book talks about people struggling to gain self-control over their addictions. It must be funny to read. Good review.

While I appreciate that a book like this was written by a physician-turned-author, I think a serial killer who targets obese people might be too uncomfortable a subject for me, at least at this time. My weight has yo-yoed most of my life due to a combination of life choices, genetics, and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (which is also technically genetics because it runs in my maternal line, but it is a particularly big factor in this), so it’s a sensitive subject for me as I try to get it straightened out. I would potentially consider the storylines involving Jeremy and Sue, even with Jeremy suffering fat-shaming from even his own grandfather, but the serial killer aspect is just a hair too far for me right now. Thank you for the helpful review.

The review was awesome, being over weight could be troubling but serving as a pry to those who hunt the obese made it more fascinating. Congratulations on BOTD.
