This nonfiction self-help book for young readers with disordered
eating and body image problems delivers real talk about eating
disorders and body image, tools and information for recovery, and
suggestions for dealing with the media messages that contribute so
much to disordered eating. You Are Enough answers questions like: *
What are eating disorders? * What types of treatment are available
for eating disorders? * What is anxiety? * How can you relax? *
What is cognitive reframing? * Why are measurements like BMI flawed
and arbitrary? * What is impostor syndrome? * How do our role
models affect us? . . . just to name a few. Many eating disorder
books are written in a way that leaves many people out of the
eating disorder conversation, and this book is written with a
special eye on inclusivity.
But she can't exactly tell the truth, either--not when she's
juggling two boyfriends, secretly hating the high school football
team everyone else worships, and trying to have the best summer
ever. At least Katie has it all under control (sort of). Her
biggest secret, what really happened the night Tommy Sullivan is a
freak was spray-painted on the junior high gymnasium wall, is
safe.
That is, until Tommy comes back to town. Katie is sure he's
going to ruin all her plans, and she'll do anything to hang on to
her perfect existence. Even if it means telling more lies. Even if,
now that Tommy's around, she's actually--truthfully--having the
time of her life.

Soon to be a major motion picture starring Cole Sprouse (Riverdale's Jughead) and Haley Lu Richardson (The Edge of Seventeen)!
In this moving story that’s perfect for fans of John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, two teens fall in love with just one minor complication - they can’t get within a few feet of each other without risking their lives. Can you love someone you can never touch?
Stella Grant likes to be in control - even though her totally out of control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. At this point, what Stella needs to control most is keeping herself away from anyone or anything that might pass along an infection and jeopardize the possibility of a lung transplant. Six feet apart. No exceptions. The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. He couldn’t care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. Soon, he’ll turn eighteen and then he’ll be able to unplug all these machines and actually go see the world, not just its hospitals.
Will’s exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Either one of them could die. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart. But suddenly six feet doesn’t feel like safety. It feels like punishment.
What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too?
