Are you SURE you meant that?

An excerpt from the book that I'm reading:

"Pretty good," Emma said. Her eyes appeared huge and her cheeks were sunken. Her emancipated appearance made it hard to believe that she was doing as well as she was.

Emma, by the way, is in the hospital with severe morning sickness symptoms, so much so, that she has to be on an IV for the entire time. See, now, for me, that sounds not fun. Not fun at all. And considering that she has lost over 5% of her body weight since getting pregnant, I would think that they were probably going for "emaciated appearance." But hey. It's in a book.

It's gotta be right, right?
