Book: Free Me From The Girl I Used To Be by Sabrina Black
Reviewed by Tandra
Rating: 5/5
This book was the biggest emotional rollercoaster ive read in a long time. I really appreciate how the author addressed the eating disorder in this book. As someone who has a bad relationship with food and body image and have gone from one end of the spectrum to the other sometimes books that really glorify and focus on the small size of girls can be hard to read but this showed perfectly how big of a struggle that is and how important the right support person is.
Rob and Rose have a typically taboo relationship. I appreciate though how this book has addressed that how people cope with trauma is specific to them. How other people may not understand why you would want to be in a dynamic that is essentially what caused your trauma. It's important to find what helps you cope and doing it in a safe controlled dynamic is ok.
I really look forward to reading the next book
