Description: Lia and Cassie were best friends, wintergirls frozen in matchstick bodies. But now Cassie is dead, and the voice inside Lia's head keeps telling her to remain in control, stay strong, lose more and weigh less. Written in a voice that rings true for many, 'Wintergirls' illuminates the psyche of an anorexic girl.
