I believe that a shorter version of this book would have been better. I stopped reading at around 75%. The poems do deal with many serious topics, including eating disorders, SA, etc. Some are well executed, while others are not. The poetry itself didn't flow well either, and it relied a lot on cliches and fairy tales. After a while, it felt as if the concept of fairy tales was being forced. I had a hard time reading it and just kept going because of the photographs.
I wouldn't recommend this book unless it was for them to see the pictures that are included alongside the poems. I'm sure that there are other books with similar concepts that have better execution than this one.
