Emmy Award-winning actor Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad, Malcom in the Middle) follows in the exasperated footsteps of Samuel L. Jackson, giving voice to the long-suffering father whose indifferent child will just not eat in this hilarious follow-up to Adam Mansbach's international best seller, Go the F--k to Sleep.

Mansbach's long-awaited sequel is about that other great parental frustration: getting your little angel to eat something that even vaguely resembles a normal meal. Profane, loving, and deeply cathartic, You Have to F--king Eat breaks the code of child-rearing silence, giving moms and dads (new, old, grand-, and expectant) a much-needed chance to laugh about a universal problem.

Anchored by a hilarious performance from Cranston, You Have to F--king Eat is the perfect blend of talented voice actor and subversive fun that expertly captures Mansbach’s trademark humor. Due to its explicit language, you probably shouldn't play this one for your kids.

Adam Mansbach first book, "Go the F--K To Sleep' was brilliant because it was shocking, funny, original, and the meter worked. This one has Bryan Cranston, but that is just about it. IT wasn't nearly as good and the novelty is gone. It just doesn't work. Unless you are a die-hard eater, or love the F--k out of Adam Mansbach, I wouldn't buy this. But since it is free, sure down load the F--ker.

Not with a bang, but a F--king Whimper

I'll listen to this several times. It's so frustratingly accurate that you have to laugh.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Bryan Cranston as the aggravated parent is spot on.

Have you listened to any of Bryan Cranston’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not listened to any other audio performances by Bryan Cranston, but I absolutely will now.

If you could take any character from Free: You Have to F--king Eat out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Bryan Cranston, of course, to see what he'd say when I don't fucking eat!

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this so much!

It's funny cause it's true!

I have literally played the original Go the F**** to sleep dozens of times, usually for friends who have not heard it. I jumped on this book for free the moment I saw it, but after listening to You have to F****** Eat, I found that it lacked the humor that the original had. I've experienced some of these situations before so I could see the point of view, but this felt like a cheap gimmick to pull more money off the success of the original

Normally, I abhor foul language. I believe if you have to lower yourself to crude expletives, then your school teachers have failed you on an epic scale. However, having dealt with small children via my brother and friends, I can easily see how you would devolve into four letter epithets. This made me laugh. It shouldn't...but it did.

I shouldn't laugh...but I do

If you could sum up Free: You Have to F--king Eat in three words, what would they be?

my sentiments exactly

Any additional comments?

I could identify with every one of the scenes. I just thought that he missed that rant that I also say often, "Take a bite, NO, that is not a bite. Just licking your fork does not count."

Almost perfect.
