Not sure if it was just the edition I was using from my library but the text was cut off at the top of the page in the comics, it was really frustrating to not be able to read sentences and have the illustrations slightly off. It was a good book, vulnerable, described eating disorders very well, illustrations were good, but I wasn’t moved or wowed beyond belief like I was expecting. I think the format of the book being off soured my experience because it was decent storytelling.
Graphic: Eating disorder, Pedophilia, and Sexual assault
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts
Minor: Suicide attempt
