Such a good book about a very important topic. Told and pictured by grace, humour and it’s just really well written. It’s also narrated amazingly and I love the voice, and the way the story is read up! Highly recommend.

Matt hasn't eaten in days. His stomach stabs and twists inside, pleading for a meal, but Matt won't give in. The hunger clears his mind, keeps him sharp - and he needs to be as sharp as possible if he's going to find out just how Tariq and his band of high school bullies drove his sister, Maya, away. Matt's hardworking mom keeps the kitchen crammed with food, but Matt can resist the siren call of casseroles and cookies because he has discovered something: the less he eats the more he seems to have...powers.

Intriguing and important
Revisado: 12-17-23
This book was very intriguing and had an interesting angle into this boy’s mind and look at reality. It was vulnerable, and raw and honest. I particularly appreciate the fact that the main character in a book is portrayed with an eating disorder such as anorexia, actually is a boy. This is so important for the representation, seeing as many eating disorder patients and anorexia patients actually are boys and men. The author also wrote that with the main character, Matt, always saying that he of course didn’t have an ED, because surely only girls got that - all the while he’s telling his story through a book of rules of starving. It was beautiful, raw, honest and well written. A must read for teenagers and young adults, and maybe a teacher or two! I’m a 31 year old male with anorexia (who’s also gay) and felt this book stood out among the others directed at youth precisely due to the fact this story is told through to eyes and the mind of a troubled boy. It was funny and well written!
