RaveLos Angeles Review of BooksFreeman evokes the mental processes of anorexia extraordinarily well, and her candor will make a great many people feel less lonely. Because she focuses on her own experience in Good Girls, she mentions male anorexia only in passing. But that doesn’t invalidate what she offers at the end of the book—a summation, over two pages, of all the things she wishes we would impress on girls to spare them the sort of misery she went through ... It’s impassioned, a sort of manifesto, and we should take it to heart.
