Title: Empty Memoir Attempts to Cash in on a Trendy Cultural Issue
Review: I was sorely disappointed by this "memoir," as 90 percent of it seemed to be devoted exclusively to Jenny Lauren's bowel woes. Very seldom did she specifically discuss the eating disorder or its emotional roots, and the occasional reference to the influence of the fashion culture seemed forced and empty. She spent the first several hundred pages sharing the gory details of her gastrointestinal issues, yet she rushed through her miraculous "healing" with just a few vague pages. Having dealt with anorexia and bulimia myslef, I know there are much, much deeper issues at work, both in the struggle and the healing. Jenny Lauren chose to ignore these when chronicling her ordeal. The book lacked emotion and substance, and it left me hungry for something more.
