This is a raw, authentic (and, at times, heartbreaking) look at the struggles one goes through when battling anorexia. Anna is realistically drawn. The parts pertaining to her residential treatment didn’t feel as accurate, however, at least not in America with the way insurance tends to work. Treatment plans and case notes added to the story and were realistic. The author definitely sheds light on a rarely discussed eating disorder, educating the reader along the way. The author also shows the impact anorexia has on loved ones. You do not need to have an eating disorder in order to find parts of this book relatable.
