Milk Fed by Melissa Broder
5.0

“I had thought that I was the sculptor and she was the golem. But now I considered that she might be the sculptor, the maestro, the creatrix, expanding and improving me, giving life to my dead parts, laughter to my breath. Maybe she was remaking me in her image. Maybe we were remaking each other.”


This book is not going to be for everyone but I fucking loved it. BIG trigger warnings for disordered eating, body dysmorphia, fatphobia, purging, starving, calorie counting, etc. Basically everything that's associated with eating disorders is depicted here and is depicted in extreme detail.
