" This book could have been a powerful essay. I found it hard to finish the book but I did. This is a story of a child eating her feelings, pain, and loneliness. Moore descriptions of food, her grandmother, and grandmother were very detailed and somewhat unneeded for the story. She spent a lot of time telling these childhood stories and then skipped over the rest of her life. She talked about the abuse from her grandmother and mother but it did bother me that no one noticed this especially since she spent so much time at the pool, in shorts for gym, and in skirts for school. This is just a really sad book, depressing really, and i'm glad to be done with it. "
