A Frighteningly Realistic Book

"Dancer in the Mirror" is the story of two young girls: one dark, slim, and enigmatic; the other bright, pudgy, and cheerful. The book tells of the downward spiral of one of the girls and the other's race to help before it is too late. This is a very good book, but it drags in a few places. Although it was written for teens, I would recommend it to anyone, no matter what age.
