The Best Book Ever

i love this book i'm 14 and i had to read this book for a school project and i do not regret choosing this book. i loved it. highly recommended.

A great book IMHO

I think this is a great book.. I read it the first time when I was 14, and again at 18 and have been looking to buy it ever since! I beleive this book touches on a lot of things, yes anorexia being one of them (although it is never really fouced on, then again in the 1800s I don't think it was as widely known as know), as well as oppression of women, etc. I think anyone, young or old, should read this book!

Read this awsome book

This wonderful book,is a great read for girls. I recamend any girl that is willing to understand another womens life pieced together in a quilt.

an exeptional novel

this book pulled me in from the first page. I loved it a first rate book about anorexia in terms and language anyone can understand. Evey young girl must read this book. In fact everyone has to read it. Spellbinding!

Could this have happened?

I enjoyed this book. It was well-written and realisitic in the area of anorexia and its habits, feelings, and the toll it takes on a family, but I have to wonder how realistic it is in the time frame Terris chose to write it. The author did a wonderful job of getting the reader into the mind of Nell while she was in the depths of anorexia. However, I have to wonder how many people had anorexia at the turn of the century. True, not many people today marry to get their family out of debt, but I just don't think many people had anorexia, especially those struggling to keep food on the table. At least that is what the statistics today tell us
