 | The Invisible Girl: A Father's Heart-breaking Story of the Daughter He Lost by Peter Barham
Buy new: £5.24 / Used from: £0.01 A tragic tale of the death of a brilliant writer who suffered from anorexia. It wasn't a gripping read, but worth it none the less.
|
 | Good Girls Do Swallow by Rachael Oakes-Ash
Buy new: £3.06 / Used from: £2.97 I had a problem with this book as I felt her eating disorder was merely born and maintained for cosmetic reasons. It's pitched as being funny, I cannot remember laughing once!
|
 | Wasted by Marya Hornbacher
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £2.87 A graphic insight into the true horrors of eating disorders. It's bravely written with seemingly extreme honesty. Definately worth reading.

 | Stick Figure: A Diary of My Former Self by Lori Gottlieb
Buy new: £3.31 / Used from: £2.86 I really loved this book! Instead of the commonly meek, submissive anorectic, Lori is funnily rebelious.

 | Don't Ever Tell: Kathy's Story: A True Tale of a Childhood Destroyed by Neglect and Fear by Kathy O'Beirne
Buy new: £4.19 / Used from: £0.01 This is a disturbing account of what many women suffered in the Mangdalen laundries. The brutality of the nuns astounds me. I find it hard to believe anyone could inflict such cruelty on innocent kids
|
 | Twilight Children: Three Voices No One Heard - Until Someone Listened by Torey L. Hayden
Buy new: £4.10 / Used from: £0.57 My favourite of all the Torey books. Three people who don't speak. I defy you not to adore 4-year-old Drake.

Listmania!
