Title: I had no idea.
Product review: I have friends who have struggled with eating disorders, but I never had much of an idea what they went through. I never thought of eating disorders as being as "serious" as say, cancer or alcohol addiction. Marya's book changed my mind about that.Now I can't go to the grocery store or listen to women talk about food without wondering at the underlying messages and feelings involved. I don't have any eating troubles myself, but I do identify with a lot of the feelings she's expressed surrounding her issues with family, friends, anger, self-image and depression.I really respect Marya's attempt to tell the book honestly without tidy bows, flowers and rainbows. I wish her the best in her continuing recovery and eagerly await her next memoir, due out this April.
