OVERVIEW

(from Goodreads)

No one writes about relationships and parenting quite like humorist Marc Prey. Now comes his first book, a laugh-out-loud funny, brutally honest and deeply touching collection of personal stories about one man's relationship with his spouse and offspring. In When It Comes to Spooning, I'm a Fork, Prey takes readers on a journey from first awkward date to raising teenagers, all the while exposing moments that seemingly shift from the hilarious to the poignant in the beat of a heart. And when it's over, readers may discover they've learned something about themselves along the way.

REVIEW

The title alone is enough to make you smile. The book is an uplifting read. If you are in need off a good laugh definitely get yourself this book. Pull it out when you're down in the dumps. It will bring you back up. The book is very well written and has a variety of short stories that go into the different relationships of one man. You will certainly remember the times you have been in the same situation as the story you're reading. I know I have. Anywhere from finding the person you'll spend your life with, to raising a family. We all know what predicaments a family can get into. This book is screenwriter Marc Prey's hilarious and wonderful debut. The book grabs your attention once you look at the cover. When you open the book to the first page, you will be hooked. You might as well figure that this book will be read in one sitting and then put on the shelf. You will want to keep this one so you can pull it out when you need a smile or laugh. I would suggest this book to anyone, not just moms and dads. You will find when you're done that you may have actually learned a thing or two about yourself. There was one chapter that I couldn't help but laugh and think back.

ARE WE THERE YET?

How many times have you heard that? I know I have heard it many, many times. How about

THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER

How many times have we all thought that? And one more we probably all have experienced at least once,

RUNNING ON EMPTY

That gas gauge is always wrong.

GRAB A COPY AND LAUGH, IT'S GOOD FOR YOU!!!!

I would give this book 4 SPOONS and 1 FORK

I was given a complimentary copy of WHEN IT COMES TO SPOONING, I"M A FORK by the author, Marc L. Prey for my opinion. No other compensation was received.
