The Definition of Beautiful by Charlotte Bellows
5.0
“Some people would burn a house to live in chaos.”
In “The Definition of Beautiful,” by Charlotte Bellows bravely shares her journey through the depths of an eating disorder that unfolds during the challenging period of the Covid lockdown. From the initial stages of seemingly harmless diets to the life-threatening clutches of the disorder, Charlotte lays bare the destructive obsession with her weight that jeopardized not only her physical well-being but also her relationship with family and friends.
I cannot express how amazing this book was. I’ve read a lot of eating disorder books in the past and this one was by far the best written and most impactful. Charlotte writes in a way so I could clearly see and feel everyone’s sides; Charlotte wants to attain an unattainable size and her family’s terror and inability to fix her if she didn’t want to be fixed. The book drew me in immediately and I couldn’t put it down and I cannot tell you how much I cried when reading it. Absolutely perfect 5 out of 5 stars.
