Title: Do not read this book!
Review: I have read numberous books on eating disorders, from clinical manuals to personal accounts - this book is up there with the worst of them. I forced myself to finish reading it because I couldn't believe how bad it was. Poor grammar, and an author who continually cried "woah is me" was bad enough but for anyone who struggles with an eating disorder this book is very triggering. I understand personal accounts of eating disorders can be triggering, but this was a long, drawn out self-pity waste of time. As a recovering anorexic I felt that this book did not portray the personal struggles of eating disorders accurately at all.I give the author credit for telling her story, as it is a very difficult thing to do. I hesitated to write a review because I did not want to offend the author, but truthfully her editors should have played a more integral role in her book.
Is the review positive or negative?
