What readers think of Fast Food Nation, plus links to write your own review.

Often overly detailed and slow, this book is still worth reading. It will - without a doubt - change the way you eat for the better. I would rate it a 3 for overall writing style, but because it had such an impact on my life, and I can still remember so many important details, I bumped the rating to a 4.

This was one of the best books I've read. It got a lot of information about fast food.O)ne thing I dislike is when the author is changing. It makes you confusing sometimes. After all it's a good book.

People love fast food because it tastes good, it's quick, and affordable

The book explains a one sided negative view on fast food, in deep passages of dangers in meat slaughtering factories, dangers of meat, fast food ingredients, natural and artificial flavors, preservatives, illnesses, low salary fast food job employees and their poor working conditions, crimes, creepy fast food commercials, farmers, slaughtered animals. And last of but least, the wealthy fast food business owners..Anyone who thought they loved fast food and would eat it in moderation will choose not to after reading this book, it's a little dreadful, and I question if all the biased facts on fast food are really true.

I gave this a low rating because although it is very informational and true, I was very irritated with how much the author branched into a story-telling mode for a while, (LONG while,) then eventually linked it to his point. It was hard to follow what he was saying and I got lost easy. This was required reading for my English class, so if I had read this on my own time, I would have put the book down within the first chapter.

This was a very informative book. But way too many facts. The book was really boring.....i slept half way through it

How could you spoil the plot to this book? It is a bunch of facts and is essentially the dark macabre history of the fast food industry. If your into history and like being informed of the horrible world we live in today have a good time reading. Though I gave it a low rating it is a very informative book. If your looking for entertainment I suggest A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers.

An interesting book to read, but a bit shallow. A great book for people that won't think for themselves. The
author jumps to conclusions without backing his statements up with hard scientific research. I'm sure this book is
popular with the PETA crowd.

I'm in an 093 English class, and this book is required for mid-terms. It's one of the worse books I've ever read in my life (besides The Giver). It's way too broad. Sometimes the author goes off topic to an example that has nothing to do with his POV. The book starts off interesting and grabs the reader's attention immediately, but once you get to the second or third chapter, it gets pretty boring with boatloads of facts that you won't even bother remembering.
