What this book is about
Eleanor is the new girl: overweight, poor, with a stepfather she fears. Park is half-Korean, quiet, and unsure. They fall in love slowly, over headphone cables and Watchmen pages. One of YA's most acclaimed and controversial love stories — praised for its emotional truth, flagged for its language.
