Review #272: Paperweight by Meg Haston



My rating: 4 of 5 stars


“The anorectic operates under the astounding illusion that she can escape the flesh, and, by association, the realm of emotions.” 


----Marya Hornbacher, an American author



Meg Haston, an American YA author, pens a very personal story inspired from her own life, Paperweight that narrates the story of a young teenager, suffering from an eating disorder, recovering from the problem to have a normal life in a treatment center which is closer to hell. This is her story and the story that tells us how she is fighting everyday against her own illness as well as her past ghosts all alone.
