“Kittle…pulls the reader through the numbing abyss of an eating-disorder and back along the slow, empowering journey to overcome it. Hannah’s believability as a character as well as the realistic, painful depiction of bulimia make this a standout.” —Booklist
“Through her travels and experiences, Hannah gains a new perspective on the notion of beauty and friendship. …With a forthright intensity, Kittle’s tale examines a complex subject.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“What I love about this story is that Hannah is a strong girl and we witness an amazing transformation of how she finds herself again… Along the way, Hannah’s journey reminds us all of what we have to be grateful for and as Hannah says herself, the most important one is knowing who you are. 5 of 5 Stars.” —National Children’s Books, Examiner.com
“The descriptions of this eating disorder are accurate and compelling. …worthy of a read by middle schoolers on the threshold of the issues facing teens today. It would make excellent bibliotherapy for guidance counselors to implement with their young students.”
—VOYA (Voice of Youth Advocates) magazine
