livruther 's review for:
Eating Disorders Don't Discriminate: Stories of Illness, Hope and Recovery from Diverse Voices
by Chukwuemeka Nwuba, Bailey Spinn
emotional
informative
reflective
fast-paced
thank you to netgalley and the publisher for an arc of this!!!
the content of this book is great. it really succeeds with its mission to promote diverse voices, and it really strengthens the book. also, the cute and colorful cover will help this book be even more accessible, which helps with making the book more appealing in order to increase the public’s knowledge on eating disorders. my only issue was this book was the writing. in some sections, parentheses were way overused, and not just to reference a source. this made the reading experience kind of jarring for me and made the writing flow less. also, this book used “?!” a few times, and i HATE that in books, especially trad pub books.
tws: fatphobia, eating disorders, references to medical trauma, mentions of suicidal ideation, references to racism, animal cruelty, bullying, panic attacks
