bookergirl90 's review for:
Ink in Water: An Illustrated Memoir (Or, How I Kicked Anorexia's Ass and Embraced Body Positivity)
by Lacy J. Davis, Jim Kettner
I received this uncorrected proof from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Into the Water is a graphic memoir of Lacy Davis' struggle through negative body image and an eating disorder in her early 20s.
Wow. This was so inspiring for Lacy to talk about her ED in the graphic format. It was real and relatable. You could see and feel her bravery when she takes us through her journey from thoughts of not being good enough to food restriction and anorexia, to exercising compulsively and then bulimia. The illustrations are done by Lacy's partner Jim Kettner and they are dark and intense, but expressive and show Lacy's pain and struggle in such a real way.
This was a quick, but powerful read. If you know someone going through an eating disorder or have yourself I recommend picking this up when it is released in Oct.
