Abstract:
Fat Angie's sister was captured in Iraq, she's the resident laughingstock at school, and her therapist tells her to count instead of eat. Can a daring new girl in her life really change anything?

Angie is broken. By her can't-be-bothered mother, by her abusive adopted brother, by her high-school tormentors, and by being the only one who thinks her varsity-athlete-turned-war-hero sister is still alive. Hiding under a mountain of junk food hasn't kept the pain away. Having failed to kill herself-- in front of a gym full of kids-- Angie is just trying to make it through each day. That is, until the arrival of KC Romance, the kind of girl who knows too well that the package doesn't always match what's inside. -- adapted from Goodreads.com info
