Emma has mastered the art of vanishing in plain sight.
She eats only when watched. Smiles only when expected. Tells everyone she's fine, even as the mirror fractures into a stranger she no longer trusts.
When her closest friends and family begin to notice the lies she can't conceal, Emma is forced into a battle between control and collapse. Each meal becomes a negotiation, each reflection a trial, each conversation a reminder that the body never keeps secrets for long.
In Hollow Bones, Laura Mitchell delivers a raw, unflinching portrait of a young woman unraveling under the weight of perfection. With prose as sharp as shattered glass, the novel captures the claustrophobia of disordered eating, the silence around it, and the desperate search for a self that won't disappear.
Haunting and urgent, this is not just Emma's story-it's a mirror held to all of us, daring us to face the fragile truths we try to hide.
