'As well as charting her adolescent battle with anorexia, it offers
a darkly compelling, highly topical account of journeying from
girlhood to womanhood in the spotlight of global celebrity.' The
Mail on Sunday 'A raw and powerful memoir, it shares lessons
banishing self-hatred.' The Sunday Telegraph 'Gradually, I began to
feel this dawning awareness that womanhood was coming for me, that
it was looming inevitably, and it didn't feel safe...' Evanna Lynch
has long been viewed as a role model for people recovering from
anorexia and the story of her casting as Luna Lovegood in the Harry
Potter films has reached almost mythic proportions. Here, in her
fascinating new memoir, Evanna confronts all the complexities and
contradictions within herself and reveals how she overcame a
life-threatening eating disorder, began to conquer her self-hate
and confronted her fear of leaving the neatness and safety of
girlhood for the unpredictable journey of being a woman, all in the
glare of the spotlight of international fame. Delving into the very
heart of a woman's relationship with her own body, Evanna explores
the pivotal moments and choices in her life that led her down the
path of creativity and dreaming and away from the empty pursuit of
perfection, and reaches towards acceptance of the wild, sensual and
unpredictable reality of womanhood. This is a story of the tragedy
and the glory of growing up, of mourning girlhood and stepping into
the unknown, and how that act of courage is the most magical and
creatively liberating thing a woman can do.
