The Book Verse

Summary:  This book is about a girl named Libby. No one tries to look past her weight and try to know her. After her mom died, life had been difficult for Libby and her dad. She had to be lifted out of her home by a crane after having a panic attack. But now she is ready for high school and for meeting new people. She meets Jack Masselin through a cruel high school game. He's the cool 'popular' kid, but no one really knows him. No one know that he cant recognize faces, that he has  prosopagnosia( face blindness) and that he already knows Libby. Review: The thing I love about this book is that they both find someone who sees them for themselves. That Jack overlooks Libby weight and Libby overlooks his condition. This shows the power of understanding.

They travel to Amsterdam together to meet Hazel's favourite author and eventually fall in love.But life has other plans for them... Review: The thing I love about this book is that unlike most books you dont get a miracle in the end. Even though it breaks the readers hearts, it teaches us what real life is like, where miracles are unconventional. Love doesnt always win, it cant beat certain things such as cancer which is what this book potrays. Even though they loved each other, they were separated.
