LEAVING JETTY ROAD by Rebecca Burton
There's not really much to say about this book. It was pretty boring, not much happened, there wasn't really anything for me to care about or keep me truly interested.

Not bad, although I think the book takes a rather simplistic view of the characters' problems. I wish the author had delved deeper - not that I want the characters to suffer more, per se, but I felt that she didn't do more than scratch the surface.

Lise, Nat and Sofia are three girls in high school in Australia who make a New Year's resolution to become vegetarian. Lise takes it too far and becomes anorexic. The other girls go about their somewhat normal lives. It's told from Nat and Lise's perspectives in alternating sections. The book works because you see Lise both from Nat's perspective but you get the added benefit of being inside her head once in awhile. Though I didn't love the book, it's still a good portrayal of a frightening
