Wow...

This book is an amazing description of one girl's journey through eating disorders. Starting in her pre-teens, she is still struggling with eating disorders as a newly wed and onward. The book has many tragic accounds about what happened to the main character, Claire, so I wouldn't suggest it to someone looking for a happy-go-lucky read. It had a deep impact on me even after I finished reading it.
