Description

Sad Perfect is a haunting novel about a teenage girl struggling with a little-known eating disorder. Pea has Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, which makes her anxious about nutritious foods and limits her social interactions. As she falls in love with Ben, she hides her condition from him, but the anxiety and depression that accompany it soon take over her life. With the support of her family and best friend, Pea begins to learn that her eating disorder doesn't have to control her. This sensitive and well-written novel takes an honest look at a common mental health issue faced by some teenagers. Stephanie Elliot's debut novel is a gripping pacey read that sheds light on the complexities of eating disorders and mental illness.
