(3) YA With brutal honesty, Elena Dunkle recounts her life with anorexia: her food-hiding strategies; her suspicion of people trying to help; her time in and out of treatment centers; and how not eating felt like a lifeline, even as it destroyed her body and life. The details are sometimes excruciating, and there's hope but no easy fix. A valuable approximation of one anorexic's in-the-moment mindset.
