Add a CommentThe authentic, painful story of seventeen year old Elena's long and complicated struggle against anorexia.
An honest and eye opening look at eating disorders and mental health. I don't think I've read anything that looks into the disease like this novel does. I would recommend this specifically to young adults.
Engaging story about a young girls struggle. Very addictive and hard to put down. Worthwhile read!!
A biographical account of a youth's lifelong struggle with severe eating disorders that sheds light on the extremely complicating nature of the disease.
