My book club read The Wonder by Emma Donoghue. I really didn't like it. You might like it though if you like books set in Ireland after the potato famine and you like books about children suffering. I understand that in some cultures and societies it is considered saintly to starve yourself to death. I do not understand how this can be. I am glad we have treatment centers for eating disorders around here.
