Man.. I don't even know where to start with this book. It gives a detailed look into someone in a treatment center for eating disorders. When I was younger, I helped my mother's work gather information regarding support for people with eating disorders. While gathering that information, I reflected a lot on the disease, and the pressures that many people are put under in the pursuit of their image of perfection.

This book detailed some of the issues that I didn't even think of, and really painted a picture of the day to day trials of someone with this disease. While it was very grim at times, I kept wanting to read more and more. I found hope in the positive aspects, and compassion in the trying times.

I really enjoyed reading this book.
