OMG, how could I forget to mention Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson as a potential book club read? I just tried starting it for a second time. Talk about an emotional read. It is going to be hard to get through (the reason I put it down last time, I was trying to read it on a trip back from Boston and it just brought so many memories of high school being an awful time) but I’m really glad Laurie Halse Anderson writes books like this for teens. Let’s see how I feel at the end. The end of Speak I wasn’t really sure I bought so I’m curious to see how this one ends.

This book looks interesting. What’s it about?
It’s really interesting, about a teenage girl who struggles with anorexia and she finds out that one of her best friends just died. Very sad but I find it interesting to read the main characters thoughts even as an adult who realizes the girl is unwell and no one is sufficiently helping her.
Okay, thanks
I’ll deffinitly give this book a try.
