This review is from: Walking a Thin Line: Winning the Battle of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia (Paperback)

The book wasn't all that great but it also wasn't horrible.
Basically it's about a girl who wants to lose a few pounds to get a guy to notice her.Soon her losing a fewpounds becomes an obsession and she gets to be anorexic.
This book could be a mind changer for anyone who's thinking of starving themselves but it will never become a life saver.
Not to be mean or anythig but if the author was trying to teach young girls a lesson she totally could have done better!

This review is from: Walking a Thin Line: Winning the Battle of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia (Paperback)

This book, walking a thin line, doesnt have a real storie. It is a bunch of descriptions, and you always think that something may happen but nothing ever does... The book would have been better if the main rolde got annorexia nervosa and not her friend, because that is a problem and each book needs a problem, in this book there was no problem; only a girl complaining because of her weight.

The book wasnt awful but even the end wasn't marvelous and you dont feel attached to the characters as you do in other books (Molly by any other name) The book has no punch line or something, its just so incredibaly deceiving when you have 4 pages left and still no sign of any sickness. The book was quite predictable. I do not suggest this book.
Good-bye
