"This is a work of fiction that mirrors aspects of my own history with disordered eating, dysmorphia, and bulimia. For those struggling with body image and food, this story might be emotionally expensive for you. Please be gentle with yourselves-- sensitivity is a superpower. And please know that there is no such thing as a bad body. Truly. Take up space, it is your birthright. Love, Mary" -- third page after verso.

i can't even express my words for this book, it genuinely blew me away. there were moments where i read a line, underlined in highlighter, and put down my book and thought about it for like a solid 5 minutes.
this book was so beautifully written, and honestly really important.
definitely reccommend! (please do research the topics before you read it, because there are a lot of sensitive topics discussed in this book. )
