[encompasses] everything you've ever felt, but couldn't put into tangible words."- Chicago Tribune "Hard to resist . . . funny and occasionally heartbreaking."- Entertainment Weekly "Berg at her tart best . . . There is plenty of lemony snap to brighten the sweetness that flows through The Day I Ate Whatever I Wanted , a book that shows how well this writer understands women's wants, strengths and foibles."- Hartford Courant "Reading The Day I Ate Whatever I Wanted is a lot like eating comfort food: it offers great satisfaction. . . . Berg understands the need we all feel to break free of strictures . . . and how small rebellions can lead to understanding."- New York Post
