Lia is acting crazy. Her goals aren't goals. They are death sentences. A goal to reach 90 pounds is ridiculous to me. "...and at 90 I will soar" (68). She thinks she will soar but I know she will die. Lia needs to get help before it's too late.

Ever since Lia was in middle school, around the time that her parents divorced, leaving Lia to feel lonely and abandoned, she has been starving herself. It started as a bet with her best friend, Cassie, to see who could become the skinniest girl in school. As time passed, being thin became Lia's obsession and the perfect way for her to control what was happening in her life.

An example of figurative language in my book is, "...she measured my sins every morning..." (46). This was talking about how Jennifer would way Lia. Lia is saying that her weight and her habits, her lifestyle are her sins. I think that Lia needs touching her ways, otherwise that could be one of her last times on the scale.
