Book Log 2022 #32: Dad is Fat by Jim Gaffigan

Gaffigan reflects on being a parent in this collection of essays and stories, mostly centered around the challenges of having younger kids (his musings on diaper changes and organizing family trips to the park will feel familiar if you've had kids) and the problems of being outnumbered (he and his wife have five kids). 

As someone who can safely look at parenting young kids in the rear view, I did recognize a lot of what Gaffigan writes about, and appreciated how he applied his particular brand of humor. Not all of the stories worked for me, but I expect that the success of the stories are more dependent on the experiences of the reader than usual.
