About the Book: Lisa isn't sick, nothing is wrong. She just wants to be thin. She's just been given a new job-she is to become Famine and join the Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Lisa isn't sure what to make of this new job and thinks it was all a nightmare. Until the scales won't go away and horse is still in her garden. Lisa takes off on a journey that leads her to battle her demons as well as the worlds.
Sarah Teenlibrarian Says: Hunger is an interesting take on novels about eating disorders. There's a bit of a fantasy element to this one, since Lisa becomes Famine. There's also a nice balance of humor with the serious, so the book never feels too heavy.
I think it's a great addition to novels about eating disorders and is such a unique take on the story that readers who don't typically read "issue-driven" novels should give it a try.
