Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia
by Marya Hornbacher
Where do I begin with this one?? Definitely an intense read, but I couldn't put it down.
The whole story, I was rooting for Marya to fully recover and deal with her emotional baggage. I guess that's real life though. I appreciated the completely honest explanation of her life, and the struggles and successes she faced with her eating disorder.
Back to the theme of different life perspectives, this one fits well. Definitely an interesting look into someone's life. Marya was bound to be so successful in school and with her writing career, but sadly the eating disorder got in the way. Amazingly, she survived death, and lived to write her memoir. I hope young girls get their hands on this book, and are inspired to take a different path in life.
I have another one of her books in my physical "to read" stack from the library. It's coming up in a few books...!
