Holding Up the Universe: Jennifer Niven

Everyone thinks they know Libby Strout.
I know the part I want to play here at MVB High. I want to be the girl who can do anything.

Once dubed `America`s Fattest Teen`, she is only seen for her weight. Not the girl underneath.

Since her mum`s death she`s been picking up the pieces in private, alone with her heartbroken father.

But now, Libby is ready. She`s ready for high school, for new friends, for love and for every possibility life has to offer.

Everyone thinks they know Jack Masselin too.
Be charming. Be hilarious. Don`t get too close to anyone.

Yes, he`s got swagger, but he`s also mastered the art of fitting in.

What no one knows is that Jack has a secret: he can`t recognize faces. Even his own brothers are strangers to him.

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.

When Jack and Libby meet, they discover that the more time they spend together, the less alone they feel.
