(3) YA Gay teen Matt believes not eating will keep him sharp enough to find his older sister Maya and, more importantly, determine why she left. The hungrier Matt gets, the more he believes he has extrasensory powers. Naturally, this is when things spin out of control. A complex and unique character, Matt struggles with self-acceptance through anorexia, his sexuality, and the effects of bullying.
