Spoiler-level clarification on the eating disorder tag.Spoiler
The character doesn't have an eating disorder but there's no tag for starvation or extreme malnutrition, and I think that could have a big impact for someone with an eating disorder.below_average_baker's review

There are a lot of triggers in here, but this is not by any means a dark book. It covers some pretty heavy topics, but it manages to keep a relatively warm and comforting tone throughout.bebidocrimes's review against another edition
