Fat, fat, fat. That’s all 16-year-old Emily sees when she looks in the mirror. And it doesn’t help that her best friend, Leah, is looking better than ever. Emily has to make some difficult decision about her weight while Leah also faces tough choices about her appearance. Faded denim is one in a series called color me trapped by Melody Carlson. This is Christian fiction for teens and I found it a bit overtly preachy.

Christians, teens
My favorite one in the series I think. This girl thinks she is fat. and she becomes anorexic/bulimic, and gets seriously sick. But then after going to a camp to be a worship leader for "special" kids, she realizes how blessed she is, and realized that every one has something to offer and that God loves her no matter what.

This book showed me what eating disorders and bulimia can do to you. It was very good i couldn't put it down. It showed how our world is so consumed by our weight and our looks. It was very good.

I love Melody Carlson's books because you can feel what the character is feeling. This is one of my favorite books in the True Colors series. I love how her books make you feel like the character's struggle is also yours. Like the part in the book where she's at camp and she's struggling with the decision to eat the apple or not, and when the one girl in her group (who is obviously anorexic herself) calls Emily anorexic, you can just feel Emily's emotions.

As a mother of three teenage girls; I try to keep up with what's going on in the world today. My daughters have all the Meoldy Carlson Color Series books and I read them to help me stay informed. They are all good, clean books that deal with real issues our children face today. Loved them all!

I have a real big problem with my self-confidence, and this book I could relate to some. I loved it & this series is amazing.
