Thank you @NetGalley & First Second Books for this eARC. I was so excited to be approved for this, not just because of the synopsis but the cover is BEAUTIFUL.

This beautifully illustrated graphic novel tells the story of disordered eating and the toll it takes on everything in your life. But most importantly it shows how kids are affected by what their parents say.
