I don’t tend to gravitate toward poetry, it’s not really my jam but I’m glad I read this and damn, it hurt. I never had an eating disorder but I have always been fat and my heart absolutely broke for June (and her sister) because I know those feelings.
If anyone reading this needs a reminder: You are worthy. Your value is not determined by your size. Food is not the enemy and your size is not right or wrong- no matter how much you weigh.
There were some formatting issues with the version I read on Libby but it was only minorly distracting for someone like me who already isn’t used to reading stories told through poetry.
