Bill Bryson - The Lost Continent
It’s funny and a great read as Bryson always is, but I noticed for the first time that my values have changed since I first read it.
He pretty regularly comments on how overweight people are, and doesn’t mind describing exactly what he finds unattractive in older or overweight women.
I guess I just got fat friends and find that distasteful now.
