This book. 💔 I love memoirs written in unique ways, and I love Sarah Moss‘ fiction; learning about her life experiences gave insights into some of the components of her novels. She so accurately captured for me the relationship between body, food and control, and how the line past which you‘ve taken it too far can be easy to cross. I loved all the discussions of works by female writers. The audio was fantastic.

Pictures of myself are hard. This book was hard. I wish things could be different for her, for me, for my mother & sister & grandmother & aunts. Until then I‘m going to do what Moss does: send a good, bright wolf back in time to provide exactly what is needed ❤️ I‘m going to start by choosing to love the body that houses me

What is louder than hunger? The voice in his head telling him he is a loser who shouldn‘t eat, doesn‘t deserve to eat. This portrait of a young boy suffering from anorexia and those determined to help him is inspiring. The voice feels genuine and telling the story in verse was genius.

Edgar says I am not journaling right now about the best book I've read so far this year. I've read several books (both fiction and nonfiction) by Sarah Moss, and damn, can she write! This was definitely her most vulnerable, and if you choose to read, proceed with caution. It's a hard subject, but she handles in well. She's sharp, intense, and brutally honest even questioning her own unreliability as a narrator of her own story.

TrishB I thought this was amazing. 3mo

I love Moss‘s books and her writing style and this memoir explores many of the themes that come out in her fiction.
Hard to say you loved a book that‘s so full of trauma and self hate. I thought the narrative was so well done - as if keeping at arms length the horrible and harmful thoughts in her head.
I wish her all the best.

andrew61 Echo your comments about her books Trish, I think I've read them all now but not got to this yet but anticipate it could be tough. She was at waterstones last September and I wanted to go but it clashed with a holiday. 3mo
