Danah's eating disorder has a personality – it's a demon she calls Ed, the voice in her head that undermines her self-esteem and her perception of the world. How can she explain to her family and friends that even when she tries to develop healthier eating and exercising habits, there is a demon wriggling inside her mind, determining her every step? While she knows on one level that what she is doing is unhealthy, the validation and sense of control that her \"demon\" gives her begins to win out over everything and everyone else. Danah Khalil, the eighteen-year-old author of this novel for teens, brings her own journal entries to life, revealing the mental anguish of a teenager suffering with anorexia and the terrifying grip the disorder holds on her. Danah's autobiographical style, honesty, and courage to show the painful truth of what can go on in the mind of someone struggling with this disorder will inspire and connect with young readers. | My Demon's Name is Ed by Danah Khalil, Perfect | Indigo Chapters
