Hunger by Jackie Morse Kessler

Hunger by Jackie Morse Kessler My rating: 5 of 5 stars I actually really liked this book. I think the subject of anorexia is one that is very overlooked sometimes. I liked the irony in a girl who was anorexic being in charge of famine. I liked that the other riders, Death, War, and Pestilence, […]
