Girls in stress

A decent attempt at writing about a topic the author did not fully understand- I read this book twice, once when I was very young, and again a week ago, a few months into recovery from my own eating disorder. While this book is informative about anorexia, bulimia and EDNOS (the symptoms, effects and Leggi tutto

Book two of the four-part "Girls" series, featuring three best friends as they grow into adolescence. Our protagonist, Ellie, is a very realistic character - I certainly felt the best connection with her whilst reading the series for the first time. This book is more grown up than the first; Ellie a Leggi tutto

I have chosen this book to review as it is one that particularly stands out in my mind going back to my earlier years of finishing primary school and entering second level.

This series is very close to my heart, and is relatable for all girls out there. it deals with lots of common issues many girls face in their teen years, and handles them in a funny, loving, hea Leggi tutto

This is honestly such an important book for me and I’m so glad I decided to read it again in my somewhat adult life. It tackles some really tricky topics but in such a way that it’s not so heavy but still gets across the seriousness. If I have children one day I will for sure hand these books down t Leggi tutto

This is probably the most problematic/traumatic of the 4 but also the most entertaining. It was honestly triggering even for me and there is no way I would let a teenager read this. Also we never find out what happened to Zoe in the end?? There wasn’t really a good conclusion it was just kind of lik Leggi tutto

Nàng này suy nghĩ giống như mình hồi trước, mỗi tội mình không bị ám ảnh kinh hoàng đến thế=))Gì mà ăn xong đi móc họng chứ?=))Bây giờ mình chẳng nghĩ đến giảm cân gì cả, chính mình hơi mũm mĩm tí thì có sao đâu, miễn vẫn có tiền mua sách là được rồi=)) Leggi tutto
