Purge by Sarah Darer Littman

Purge by Sarah Darer Littman

Genre: Realistic Fiction

Summary: Janie hates throwing up, but she still binges and then throws up several times a day.  She ends up in a recovery program and must discover the underlying reasons for her bulemia.  But in the middle of all this, she has to survive the conflicts between the Barfers and the Starvers and the new friendships...

Review: This was a really good book! I love how you can identify with Janie and you can't believe the actions she takes - and you can't believe what the others girls do! I give this a four out of five! (I'm a tough critic!)

I'm having a hard time coming up with books like this one.  It gets pretty deep into issues and the topic is pretty intense!
