The Passion of Alice by Stephanie Grant

3.0

Nominated for book groups otherwise I'm not sure I would have found it, this book is a likeable easy read which given that its a story of a young woman with anorexia in rehab is no mean feat. The story is very much from Alice's perspective, with no apologies or explanation. Nor is it a this is how you get cured book. Both of these things contribute to making the book and easy interesting read. There are some very subtle messages about the way women's bodies are perceived and how it leads to the various eating disorders, I appreciated the clever way this was done.
