one to remember!!!!

This book was writtten so incredibly beautifull!!!!I would recommened this book to teens, even if they don't like to read because its funny and it also portrays the reality of life and the harshness anerexia and bulimia cause. what i love about it most is that its REALISTIC! Most books lack originality. YOu cry laugh and keeps you glued to the pages it s worth 10 stars !!!!! its a must read book!!

-+-A MUSt REAd-+-

Let me start off by saying how i really hAtE to read. Nothing is interesting to me. wouldn't you rather watch it in a movie? that was my way of looking at it, until I read this book. It taught me about myself and how I see myself. It changed alot of things for the better. In about a year, I have read this book three times and just today, I started to read it again. Let me remind you that i am excellent in math, and horrible in reading. extrememly bad in engish(although im in english 3 ap and passing. who knows) So anyways. today, i read 46 pages, in a mere 17minsutes. let me tell you. it's better than hooked on phonics. i love this book. i cant wait to see a movie of it!

my favorite book.... i want to buy it.

I borrowed this book three times from the library a fews years ago. They don't have it anymore and I really want to read it again. I can't find it anywhere. Anyway... this is a wonderful book and I would recomend it to anyone, especially younger females. It always made me cry everytime I read it.

this is a great book for girls who worry about how they look

I have read this book many times and it still gets me to cry every time i read it. You get to know Zibby (the main charater) and her new found friend, Lauren who once was an enemy and they become your friends too. but when Zibby finally seems to be getting better alone with Lauren, tragiety stricks and thats where i'm going to leave you. so go out and try and find this book you won't regret it! ecellent book!

You need to read this one!

This book is about a girl's strugle with Bulimia and how she over comes it. It is a wonderful book, the people she meats when she is in Hope-House (a hospaital) are incredable! Some of them should be called heros, most of them are getting over their own problems, mental or phisical. This book shows you that life is not perfect, but that doesn't mean that we should give up hope. A very touching book
