Anderson, Laurie. Wintergirls. New York City: Penguin Group, 2009. 278 pages. (Fiction) Cassie is dead. Lia is skinny, Lia is skinnier, Lia is skinniest. Her body wants food, her mind hates food. 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 91, 89... She’s on a downward spiral, with her dead friend haunting her all the way. Soon she’ll be nothing... and she’ll be with Cassie.
This book was REALLY amazing! At some times I thought of Lia as stupid, but then other times I felt bad for her. Laurie Halse Anderson (the author) is an INCREDIBLE writer!!!!!!!!! She has a way of writing that makes you adore a character one moment, then hate them the next. It’s really fun to read her books. Don’t miss out on another of her books: Speak, (also an amazing book).Reviewed by: DancingPenguin96
