Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

  • What's Eating Gilbert Grape? by Peter Hedges

    I read this book after watching the movie starring a pre-famous Leonardo DiCaprio and a much younger Johnny Depp. The book is written by Peter Hedges about a family with a heap of problems. The main character is a young Gilbert Grape (Depp), forced to work at a local grocery store to support his large, fatherless family. His mom, a long ago town beauty, has ballooned up to 500 plus pounds. The older sister, more like a mother than a sister, a younger sister, newly braces free, and Arnie, his mentally handicapped brother. We watch as his life unfolds before us, as he continues a hot affair with a much older woman, learns to accept his fate in a small town going no where, and finding his true self through an unlikely source! The book is wonderful and is a lot like the movie.

  • Hilarious writing

    Very witty and sarcastic. Easy to read. The movie deviated just a tad from the book. It's an excellent story and great to read. Laugh-out-loud and witty remarks and insights all over the plot.

  • The book deals with how tragic loss can negatively impact the intire family and how they try to cope.

    I had watched the movie...which doesn't really follow the book so much as some books, but it does answer some background questions you may have in watching the movie. I wish Mr. Hedges would write a sequel to this book. Anyway the book helps you to understand family better if you have watched the movie...5 stars on the movie if case anyone wants to know.
