Our Chemical Hearts

"Love is never quite what you expect... Henry Page fancies himself quite a romantic, but he has yet to find the slo-mo, heart palpitating, can't eat-can't sleep kind of love that he's been hoping for. But then Grace Town walks into his class and he knows everything's about to change. Grace isn't who Henry pictured as his dream girl - she walks with a cane, wears oversized boys' clothes, and rarely seems to shower. But when Grace and Henry are chosen to co-edit the school paper, he quickly finds himself falling for her. It's obvious there's something broken about Grace, but Henry wants nothing more than to help her put the pieces back together again. Equal parts wit and heartbreak, this is a potent, powerful portrait of the bittersweet bliss that is first love."--Back cover.
