Jennifer Niven delivers another poignant, exhilarating love story about finding that person who sees you for who you are - and seeing them right back. Because sometimes when you meet someone, it changes the world - theirs and yours. Because the more time they spend together, the less alone they feel. When the two get tangled up in a cruel high school game which lands them in group counseling, Libby and Jack are both angry, and then surprised. So he tells himself to play it cool- Be charming. He's the guy who can re-engineer and rebuild anything, but he can't understand what's going on with the inner workings of his own brain. Even his own brothers are strangers to him. What no one knows is that Jack has a secret- he can't recognize faces. Yes, he's got swagger, but he's also mastered the art of fitting in. Everyone thinks they know Jack Masselin too. I want to be the girl who can do anything. I know the part I want to play here at MVB High. Now, Libby's ready- for high school, for new friends, for love, and for EVERY POSSIBILITY LIFE HAS TO OFFER. Since her mum's death, she's been picking up the pieces in the privacy of her home, dealing with her heartbroken father and her own grief.
But no one's taken the time to look past her weight to get to see who she really is. Everyone thinks they know Libby Strout, the girl once dubbed 'America's Fattest Teen'. From the author of the New York Times bestseller All the Bright Places comes a heart-wrenching story about what it means to see someone - and love someone - for who they truly are.
