Honestly I loved this book. The real and rawness that Niven gives to her characters is always amazing.

Another six-star read!
Summary: The book, in short, is about two high schoolers who are trying to find themselves in a world of judgement. The FMC is a plus size woman, known for being on the news due to this obesity, and the MMC has a condition of not being able to recognize people. Eventually, the FMC goes to his school, after years of being home-schooled, is introduced to him, and he soon realizes she is a force to reckon with. Literally and figuratively. They grow closer, the bond of friendship and something else grows as they both see the beauty in each other and themselves.
Review: I loved that the characters were similar yet different in their sense of security, mental/physical problems, and spirit in the world. Both the MMC and the FMC wanted to find something about themselves that felt like everyone else. Because to them, everyone else were "normal", like they were the odd men out. The description of the book was good, keeping me entertained for a good couple of days.
Final thoughts: I loved it overall. She did a great job in her character development.

so sorry Jennifer but why was finch and jack have so many similarities
This was an interesting book through the eyes of 2 HS students with different, yet related issues they are dealing with. The only reason I gave it 3 stars and not 4 stars is because the chapters are so short and go back and forth between the perspective of the 2 main characters. I like when authors do that, but their chapters were too short and it was hard switching back and forth.
Amazing, heart-warming, and quirky in its own way. This book made me laugh, smile, cry, frown, and inspired me to be like Libby.
