How Do You Like Me Now? by Holly Bourne

1.0

TW: Ugh please don't read this book (coming from a massive Holly Bourne fan). This book discusses self-harm (mentioned a couple of times for dramatic effect) and eating disorders (constantly mentioned yet given a 1 dimensional portrayal - think 'all it is is shyly skipping meals in an effort to stay slim' not the harsher realities further than food). The main character is bitter and self-centered and this book is not nearly as nuanced as you may think - all of the abusive boyfriend's behaviour is obvious red-flags (and the mc knows it) not the sort of subtle portrayal that I thought it would be. As well as this I really hated the Facebook format some of the book was in - complete with stock photos and all!
