Book Reviews of Diary of an Anorexic Girl
Book Review: A Simplistic Description of Anorexia
Summary: 3 Stars
Morgan Menzie's efforts in putting words to her eating disorder are heroic. I flew threw the book in only a few days and was drawn in by the diary style of the book. The story was simple and ordinary. A little too ordinary, however. Although I understand that the story was, for the most part, a true story, I found it hard to buy into the reality of the main character developing an eating disorder. Yes, "Blythe" was rejected by boys and had trouble making friends, but really... that would drive someone to anorexia? For a more sympathetic read, try Wasted by Marya Hornbacher, or Loss and Found by Karen Flyer. Both of these memoirs are far more believable and compelling stories of adolescent angst and eating disorders.
