Stereotypical Ed Story
This follows a general outline of a lot of eating disorder themed books. Female main character has an unknown Ed till it gets discovered and then in treatment. She has bickering parents, perfectionism in her eyes, poor body image, and feeling inadequate. She falls in on one of two camps, the bulimic or anorexic side and can't comprehend the other. She has her middle class struggles and it was just boring. There's not much to this book. It's simple. Weird that instead of saying goddammit it it would odmit the o with a dash. But there is nothing I can take away from this book that is memorable maybe except puking in socks and chucking it out the window.
