Publisher's Summary
A lavish, debauched weekend to celebrate an upcoming wedding devolves into a murder scene.
With the snow falling fast on a New Hampshire mansion, seven 20-somethings gather for a weekend that will change their lives irrevocably. The extravagant trip to celebrate Will and Jessica's upcoming nuptials brings together a cast of characters who know each other from Ivy League schools and childhood Upper East Side haunts.
There is Lulu, an LA-based Instagram influencer; Maxie, a former Park Avenue princess, now Midwestern housewife; Yael, an ER doctor from Ohio; Rob, a colorless Wall Street trader; Will, a morality-obsessed lawyer; Jessica, Will’s perfectionist bride-to-be; and Alex Sable, a lawless pleasure-seeker with refined tastes. Alex, son of a billionaire hedge-fund scion, was the sole witness against his classmate in a serial rape trial 15 years ago, the notoriety of which follows Alex everywhere.
By Will and Jessica's wedding day, four months later, Alex Sable would be dead—in that same house, in a bathtub filled with his blood.
Can Tyler Carroll, a well-known podcast reporter determined to pry his way into their closed-door world, sift through the secrets that connect the seven in a web? As Tyler attempts to find the truth behind the months leading up to Alex Sable's dramatic death, he follows the bridal party, whose lives have spiraled in wildly different directions, bringing them to a fateful night.
The narration by Elizabeth Evans pushes the tangled tale forward as she gracefully performs multiple characters, creating a clear picture of chaos and emotion.
Told in dual time lines, the months leading up to the wedding and the investigation thereafter, I Eat Men Like Air is a riveting look at the unraveling of a friend group punctured by violence and a chilling depiction of the rage that festers when it's kept secret.
Note: I Eat Men Like Air contains mature and sensitive themes.

Absolutely loved it
Looks like you either love this novel or you hate it.
For me, the character developments and plot twists are stunning. A very intelligent comment on social class and the fragility underpinning their glossy veneer.
I couldn’t stop listening. I instantly wanted everything Alice Bergman has written.

Refreshing, damning and dark
I hope she writes another. This was a great modern day Agatha Christie. Stick with it past the first chapter and you’ll be sucked in…

Couldn't Stop!
My house is spotless because I was obsessed with the story and had to find things to clean so I could listen for hours. I kept making guesses but loved each character changes along the way. Amazing even tried to find more books Alice Berman may have written but will have to wait patiently!

Not worth the effort
Kept waiting for it to pick up or an interesting story line to evolve but was ultimately disappointed.

Yikes
I picked this book up based on the glowing reviews. It needs a trigger warning for r*pe, it's the under current of the whole novel. Every character is toxic and unlikeable, the title of the novel makes no sense to the story at all. I honestly feel like I lost brain cells listening to this novel. The performance was pretty good between the different characters by the person reading the book but the basis of the story was just crappy.
