Libby Strout has been homeschooled since her high-profile public struggle with obesity. Now she's ready to rejoin the world, nervous but determined to claim her place. Jack Masselin is a popular guy with a secret: he can't recognize faces, even his own family's. When a cruel high school prank lands Libby and Jack in group counseling, they're surprised to find solace in each other's company. As they navigate the social minefield of high school, they discover an unexpected bond that changes both their worlds. At its heart, this is a story about finding strength in vulnerability and connection in isolation.
