About a Book in Four Pictures: Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson

Inspired by Kyle Tezak and his Four Icon Challenge, I will be creating four pictures on my own - or I will borrow from the internet - that will tell you about a certain  book.  Like book reviews, this will help you learn more about some books out there but without having to read lengthy analysis of plots/characters/etc.  This feature will help feed your curiosity about a particular story in the briefest - and more visual - way possible. 

This week's featured book is Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson.  I loved this story, even though the tone was a bit too morbid and poignant.  But it was a really great book, no matter if you want to read it for deeper understanding of eating disorders, or just for a good story. 

From the pictures above, you can now understand that a significant event in Lia Overbrook's life happens in a motel, where her best friend Cassie dies, alone.  She called Lia thirty-three times on her cell phone before she died.  Both Lia and Cassie have eating disorders and even had a pact that they would be the skinniest girls ever.  Apart from this sick goal, Lia also cuts herself in order to ignore some things that she struggles to 'un-feel' within herself.  

I know, it's pretty depressing, but once you get to the end, you will agree that it was more than worth it.
