Fat Chance - Thryft

Teen's heartfelt journey through eating disorder recovery.

"Fat Chance" could hit close to home if you've ever grappled with self-image or the pressure to fit in. Written like a personal diary, it feels as though Judi is a real teenager confiding in you, making her challenges and triumphs feel incredibly personal and relatable. This book doesn't shy away from the difficult parts of growing up, and it might just give you a new perspective on resilience and self-acceptance.

Description

Judi Liebowitz thinks she's fat. And she's convinced, as she confides in her diary, that she'd be happier if she were skinnier. So when Judi becomes friendly with pencil-thin, glamorous Nancy Pratt, she learns Nancy's secret and joins her in the secret binge-and-purge cycles of bulimia. Before long, Judi's life spins out of control and her obsession with food, calories, and pounds is no longer another typical eighth-grade problem--it's a matter of life and death.
