Valerie Chu is quiet, studious, and above all, thin. No one, not even her best friend, Jordan, knows that she has been bingeing and purging for years. But when tragedy strikes, Val finds herself reassessing her priorities, her choices, and her body. The path to happiness may lead her away from her hometown and her mother's toxic projections--but first she will have to find the strength to seek help.

From beloved creator Victoria Ying comes a beautiful and heart-wrenching young adult graphic novel that takes a look at eating disorders, family dynamics, and ultimately, a journey to self-love.
