Hungry ghost [graphic novel] / Victoria Ying ; color by Lynette Wong.
"Valerie Chu is quiet, studious, and above all, thin. No one, not even her best friend, Jordan, knows that she has been bingeing and purging for years. But when tragedy strikes, Val finds herself reassessing her priorities, her choices, and her body. The path to happiness may lead her away from her hometown and her mothers toxic projections--but first she will have to find the strength to seek help."-- Provided by publisher.
