on the other hand, has known anorexia her entire life, thanks to her
mother’s “chew and spit” guidance. Through the drudgery and drama
of treatment life, Shoshana and Rowan develop a fierce intimacy—and
for Rowan, a budding infatuation, that neither girl expects.
As “Gray Girls,” patients in the center’s Gray plan, Shoshana and
Rowan are constantly under the nurses’ watchful eyes. They dream
of being Blue, when they will enjoy more freedom and the knowledge
that their days at the center are numbered. But going home means
separating and returning to all the challenges they left behind. The

other—and their destructive patterns. Ultimately, the girls will have Before We Were Blue
to choose: their recovery or their relationship.
