It's also a book about finding hope after loss and difficult times, and how to hang on to that hope in the face of adversity. A couple years back Libby had gained so much weight that she needed to be rescued from her house to be saved. And though I absolutely adored the romance between Libby and Jack, and how they affect each other, I was equally invested in their individual stories. m., and the time of night when my mind starts running around all wild and out of control, like my cat, George, when he was a kitten.so is it fair to judge a different book by the same author when you know they are capable of doing better? The author tried to portray Libby as a person who is fighting against bullying- but she refers to herself as fat many times. which i think is a great way to tell people who deal with bullying that IT CAN GET BETTER, it may take time, but it can happen if you get the right help and are supported.
