One of the worst books I’ve read this year. Did nothing to add to the discourse around eating disorders besides borderline glamorizing them. All of the characters were terrible, especially Justine who was essentially a manic pixie dream girl. This book was not it.
Editing to add that Justine’s male friends were equally insufferable. One of them carries a camcorder everywhere. Seriously.
