What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Struggling to deal with her brother's death and a past she refuses to confront, Stevie knows she has problems. But she's still furious about the fact that she's been packed off to a health clinic, in the middle of nowhere, where mobile phones are banned and communication with the outside world is strictly by permission only. The regimented and obtrusive nature of the clinic and its staff is torture to the deeply private, obstinate Stevie - and don't even get her started on the other 'inmates'. All she wants is to be left alone... But as Stevie is about to find out, life is full of surprises. And she will prove herself stronger than she knows

- even when her past finally catches her up in the most shocking and brutal way possible.

My thoughts

This book got me hooked immediately! My true rating would be 4 and a half stars! I think this book was just so touching.

Spoilers!

The book is about a girl named Stevie who has an eating disorder and who blames herself for the death of her brother. The book is beautifully written, I like it that you read a part of the present and then a flashback of her memories but they don't tell you thr whole thing which makes you want to continue reading! It ends with Stevie accepting herself for who she is and agrees to continue treatment I do would have loved to read how it continues, how she co ups with everything and to see her progress. Overall am amazing book with a heartbreaking story that shows a lot of perspective of how life can be cruel but that the people around you are always there for you.
