Lauren Seal is a writer, librarian, and the third Poet Laureate of St. Albert in Alberta, Canada. She mentors the teen and young adult poets of a spoken word youth choir and her poems have been published in various anthologies. This novel-in-verse, her first book, is inspired by her own experiences with anorexia, anxiety, and hospitalization. When she's not busy recommending books to library patrons, Lauren can be found reading, writing, and composing poems in her head on long dog walks.
Schneider Family Book Award Honor Winner ""Skillfully crafted . . . A realistically complex yet hopeful account of eating disorder treatment."" —Kirkus Review ""An emotionally complex novel that that will linger in readers' minds.""—Booklist ""The tone and tempo of this verse novel tracks with Evie’s journey toward healing. Spare, hyper focused, and compulsive at first, the cadence moving with a staccato franticness; as she comes to terms with her diagnosis and treatment, eventually a steadiness—fragile, to be sure—threads through the text. . . . A smart acknowledgment of the effect that social media has on disordered eating."" —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
