Holding Up the Universe

Libby's ready to reinvent herself after spending years hiding away from the world and the painful memories of her mother's death—she's determined to be the girl who can do anything. Jack seems like he has it all figured out with his charm and easy confidence, but he's harboring a secret that makes genuine connection feel impossible. When a cruel high school prank lands them both in group counseling and community service, these two outcasts discover that maybe they've been looking for understanding in all the wrong places—until they find it in each other. This is a tender, funny story about two people learning that the parts of ourselves we think are unforgivable are often what make us most lovable.
