Evaluation Of Books Elena Vanishing

Elena and Clare B. Dunkles Elena Vanishing, published in 2015, is the story of a seventeen-year-old girl battling a lose-lose war against her anxiety while struggling with anorexia. The story serves as Elena Dunkles memoir, in which she struggled from anorexia nervosa along with cardiomyopathy after being violently raped at the age of thirteen. This is Elena Dunkles first book, which is why she partnered with her mother, Clare B. Dunkle. Clare is an award-winning author of seven fantasy and

When I first read this premise, I was instantly intrigued. I only know about anorexia nervosa from learning about it in highschool and from media depictions. I've always believed that the idea of anorexia nervosa was associated to thought of simply "wanting to be skinny" and reading this memoir definitely offered up a more in-depth look into the disorder. Elena's story is incredibly raw and open and there were moments of the book where I definitely had to put it down and revisit it. The pain

An Advanced Reader Copy was provided by the publisher for review.Starting this one, I knew I was going to have trouble getting into the mind-set. Not only is this story real since it's a memoir, what she goes through is what happened in her life. Her thoughts are real. That made a big difference when I was reading it.Elena feels like she has lost control over her life, and the one thing she believes she can do is to control what she eats. Everything has to be perfect. Being told she's beautiful

Amazing story. I am always looking for inspiring and insightful biographies and autobiographies. "Elena Vanishing" had me intrigued because of the topic, Elena's eating disorder. I have never understood, how anyone could starve themselves or binge and purge. None of this has ever made sense to me. Elena takes the reader right into the mind of a young seemingly successful woman. We see the world from her viewpoint, and it had me scared. Her level of self hatred and the extreme of perfection was

There was a lot of plot twists and it was very intriguing to see what happened next. It was very interesting in my opinion because you heard two different perspectives. I didnt really like any of the characters because they were really negative but the mom was always there for support. She is kind of the same as me because I always listen to my mind instead of people who try to help. Appreciation= The author teaches us to appreciate the one who want to help. They are worried abt you and want

Elena, a seventeen year old girl who has a voice in her head that tells her what to do in order to be perfect. Put on makeup. Have good grades. Work at least two jobs. And never, ever eat. No one likes you, you are fat, you are obese. This is the voice in her head, and it controls her. Elena has to go from hospital to hospital, trying to fight her conscience. This book was amazing. It teaches a strong lesson, and is very powerful. One of the reasons I loved this book is because it is non

I like when books like this are told from the perspective of the person as they're suffering, not looking back. But it felt like a lot of this was too clinical and not in the author's own words, so I wasn't surprised to see her mom -- an authors -- basically wrote it for her which is weird. It's not super distracting but there are definitely moments that don't sound like they're genuine. That, and the book didn't really have a beginning...you're kind of tossed into things and while it's not
