Hungry Ghost

Valerie Chu is quiet, studious, and above all, thin. No one, not even her best friend, Jordan, knows that she has been bingeing and purging for years. But a class trip to Paris forces her to consider change: she can't maintain her purging schedule and still see the sights. And when tragedy strikes, Val finds herself reassessing her priorities, her choices, and her body.

The path to happiness may lead her away from her hometown and her mother’s toxic projections ― but first she will have to find the strength to seek help. This beautiful and heart-wrenching young adult graphic novel takes a look at eating disorders, family dynamics, and ultimately, a journey to self-love.

Description

"Ying’s artwork is appropriately nuanced and expressive, approaching the topics of grief, eating disorders, and mental health conditions sensitively and complemented by Wong’s subdued palette of mint green, soft peach, slate gray, and light brown.... A gorgeously wrought, therapeutic story filled with tenderness and honesty." — Kirkus Reviews
