Perfect is about eating disorders and teenage pain, and it's absolutely brilliant. This story is incredibly short and incredibly powerful.

I don't know exactly why this book stands out. Maybe it's the emotional touch. Isabelle and Ashley both come off as incredibly real characters, despite the short length. The story is so raw and real, far more than many books about eating disorders.

Maybe it's the reasonable, understated tone. This story is well-written and well-executed.

It's ridiculously short, but it's definitely worth a read.
