Hunger by Jackie Morse Kessler
5.0
I really liked this book. In fact, I think it should be added to the required reading list for high schools across the country.
It's not a preachy book by any means, but it does very well at showing the awful downsides that accompany anorexia.Interwoven with this very real look at a serious disorder is a moving tale of a troubled young girl recruited to become Hunger - one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
I found the characters to be very relatable and the prose to be both simple and yet powerful in getting its point across.
I highly recommend this book to everyone, it's a quick read and totally worth it.
