Read of my reviews at Whoo Gives A Hoot REVIEW COMING SOON 9781310947322 such a good book I relates to it a ton because I have suffered eating disorders and it was such a good read 9781310947322 I must say this book threw me for a loop I didn t know what to expect when I first started reading but quickly became immersed in Kinsley s story This book touches on a very delicate subject that most people don t think about much less talk about Eating Disorders. Thinwall 500ml Thin delves into the life of Kinsley a college student who suffers from Bulimia and it walks you through her process of rehabilitation and her struggles with this disease It is a heart twisting book and you will be pulled into Kinsley s life I must say I wanted to just reach into the plot and do my best to help her I felt that much a part of the book. Thinz original diet pills I can honestly say this book hit me hard Although I don t pretend to know what someone with Bulimia or any other disorder dealing with the need to be thing goes through I do know what another character in the book goes through He is on the opposite end and his disorder is overeating. Science Fiction Fantasy thinkpad This book is well worth the read You definitely won t be disappointed 9781310947322 44 5 9781310947322 Awesome book could relate with the eating disorder the main character goes through I love this series my favorite so far 9781310947322 Kinsley Simmons does not belong in an inpatient facility for people struggling with eating disorders However her doctor and therapist are of the opinion that she does which is why she s missing out on her college graduation to participate in a recovery program for Bulimia Nervosa A girl with a Type A personality Kinsley never thought her life would come to this dumped by her college sweetheart flunking most of her classes caught between bickering parents on the brink of divorce and spiraling out of control as the dangerous habits of her disorder destroy her health and friendships When Royce Adams is invited to speak to her therapy group Kinsley isn t at all interested in anything he has to say He can never understand what she is going through or have the first idea of how to help her get better Yet as he takes a personal interest her recovery she comes to realize there is to Royce than meets the eye While seeming perfect on the surface he wrestles with demons of his own including a past riddled with addiction and self destructive behavior As their friendship blossoms into something Kinsley will find in Royce the strength to face the reasons behind her disorder With his help she may also find what she needs to live a full healthy life one filled with happiness and love Thin By Alicia MichaelsAudible review title A challenging subject matter done well Minor spoilers alert My tags for this novel are Informative Realistic Ethnically diverse characters HEAUnabridged Audiobook InfoFormat read Audiobook via Audible s Romance PackageNarrated by Rachel JacobsLength 8 hrs and 6 minsRelease Date 03 27 18Publisher Marion PressWriting style Kinsley s POV onlyCover design gush I love it It s modestly sexy and my favorite one in the Sharing Spaces series of standalone novels. Thin book RatingsOverall Performances Rachel Jacobs returned to complete this last and final novel in the series She was good with giving the characters vocal personality and keeping me tuned in to a plot that dealt with very serious themes. Thinking legal Story Technically I went into this third novel about Kinsley blind I didn t read the synopsis before diving in But I knew from her changing behavior in Chloe s novel that something serious was going on with Kinsley I felt sorry for her her parents and her friends who weren t sure how to help her initially New friend characters in treatment with her were introduced and I liked how we got a follow up on how they were doing post treatment as well. Thinus keeve If you read the synopsis and aren t scared off by a seriously themed new adult college experience then definitely give this novel a read 9781310947322 Some nice things here like the mix of eating disorders at Kinsley s treatment programme and the multiracial cast throughout. Thinnest laptop I just can t take the treatment programme seriously though Kinsley goes there because bulimia has taken over her life to the extent that she s barely eating solid food and she s gone from a straight A student to failing her last semester of college Butthere s pretty much zero oversight at this programme No accountability Kinsley is given a suggested meal plan but she s allowed to eat or not eat whatever she wants bathrooms are unsupervised and snacks are freely constantly available which sounds like a terrible combination for recovering bulimics she s also encouraged to exercise not a bad idea long term of course but usually discouraged in early recovery especially when one needs to gain weight to be healthy seemingly without limits at times she s working out twice a day 124. Book think and grow rich Despite this and the fact that Kinsley hasn t eaten entire food groups in months or kept than the smallest amount of food down in about as long she almost immediately begins to make balanced food choices She doesn t purge or even really consider purging for thanhalf a second By day three she s eating a reasonable meal including things that could be called fear foods for her without really thinking about it She s also thrilled to see her weight increase throughout. Thunivu book NowKinsley s lack of focus on thinness could actually be interesting not all eating disorders entail bad body image and Kinsley is Black and Indian which could be interesting because thinness isn t always emphasised in Black society in the way it is in white society And separate from that eating disorders don t have to be connected to body image at all But that sort of disinterest in thinness is so rare in representations of eating disorders that I wanted so much from it Too it s not as though every person in eating disorder treatment is running around hiding food and secretly exercising not that secrecy of exercise matters in this case given that Kinsley is given free rein to do whatever she wants and trying to avoid getting better But guys If it were as easy as here s a suggested meal plan that we don t require you to follow Kinsley would not need to be in a treatment centre. Tinyzone Also any therapist who hits on his client while she s actively in therapy even if he then has her switch over to another therapist should be fired so I really couldn t get behind the romance 9781310947322 4 26 18 Updated Review to include AudiobookHaving experienced this sensational story all over again as it was brought to life by narrator Rachel Jacobs was AH MAZING The emotional roller coaster that is Kinsley s disorder and recovery hit me just that much harder hearing feeling and seeing it through Rachel Jacobs eyes Jacobs nailed it All that raw emotion was palpable It left me a bit shaken afterwards Well Done 4 2016Wow Alicia Michaels takes a taboo topic like bulimia and pulls it front and center The MC Kinsley had it all but things quickly spiraled out of control after her cheer coach suggested she drop a few pounds Getting dumped by her longtime boyfriend only caused things to spin further out of Kinsley s grasp Then her grades followed Before she knew it everything was beyond her control Now in a last effort to get herself healthy and back on track Kinsley is entering Willow Creek Alicia Michaels peels back the layers of what it is like to battle bulimia and OCD The reader sees and experiences it all therapy meds family all of it I could certainly put myself in Kinsley s shoes Like her I have always strived for perfection so I can see how easy it was for her to spiral downhill I love that the author is shedding light on this topic and donating proceeds to this cause I hope this story gives courage to anyone suffering from an eating disorder to seek the help they need Kinsley s story shows us that through perseverance the support of family friends and love you can conquer anything 9781310947322 I had requested and received audiobook version of this book for free from the author in exchange for an unbiased review. Young adult therapist near me My rating of this book doesn t reflect on the quality of the book or the story within I gave it two stars because this book just wasn t for me It dealt with a serious topic and had well written characters and yet I wasn t able to relate to them since I myself haven t seen the problem in my environment or personally know anyone that s going through it I didn t quite get engaged with the story and wasn t getting anything out of it It wasn t entertaining and I don t think it was meant to be anyway to me and it didn t make me think deeply about the issue either But that doesn t mean that book is poor If you want to listen to the story of a someone struggling through this disorder and their path to recovery do give this a try 9781310947322 I liked that there was so many POC characters and it was centred mostly about falling in love with yourself rather than with another person However this book really disappointed me First of all Kinsley s recovery seemed rushed and unrealistic For example she was able to eat an entire meal by Day 2 or 3 and along with that she had no relapses The author sort of wrote her to be this girl who had a serious bulimia and OCD problem but showed how she recovered flawlessly It made the character hard to believe and unrelatable She had the urges but somehow powered through them within the first 48 hours that she was there It sort of threw me off Secondly The relationship between Kinsley and Royce seemed forced There wasn t really any chemistry between them I would ve loved to see between them This book had such incredible potential and was a serious topic that could ve been addressed so wonderfully but the author kind of breezed through it However I m so glad from the very beginning the author the character addressed how eating disorders are represented as a white girl problem I loved that the protagonist including royce were POC s 9781310947322
