The Anorexia Diaries: A Mother and Daughter's Triumph over Teenage Eating Disorders by Linda M. & Tara M. Rio, 2003.

1. (pp. 1-66) Most people's diaries are boring and badly-written. (This makes me feel better about my own boring, badly-written diaries!) 2. (pp. 67-200) Except when really bad things happen to them; then they become fascinating. A very brave book to have written, and probably genuinely helpful to families in that kind of situation. A striking example of how very differently two people interpret the same incidents.
