<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"When high school senior Henry Page meets Grace Town, he finally experiences the ups and downs of first love"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>John Green meets Rainbow Rowell in this irresistible story of first love, broken hearts, and the golden seams that put them back together again.</b> <p/>Henry Page has never been in love. He fancies himself a hopeless romantic, but the slo-mo, heart palpitating, can't-eat-can't-sleep kind of love that he's been hoping for just hasn't been in the cards for him--at least not yet. Instead, he's been happy to focus on his grades, on getting into a semi-decent college and finally becoming editor of his school newspaper. Then Grace Town walks into his first period class on the third Tuesday of senior year and he knows everything's about to change. <p/>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 both chosen to edit the school paper, he quickly finds himself falling for her. It's obvious there's something broken about Grace, but it seems to make her even more beautiful to Henry, and he wants nothing more than to help her put the pieces back together again. And yet, this isn't your average story of boy meets girl. Krystal Sutherland's brilliant debut is equal parts wit and heartbreak, a potent reminder of the bittersweet bliss that is first love.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Our Chemical Hearts</i> <br></b><br> <b>Indies Introduce Summer 2016 Pick</b><br> <b>Autumn 2016 Kids' Indie Next List - Inspired Recommendations for Kids from Indie Booksellers<br></b><br>"<b>The most romantic read of the season</b> is an arguably anti-YA story...

Since then she's lived in Sydney, where she edited her university's student magazine; Amsterdam, where she worked as a foreign correspondent; and Hong Kong. She has no pets and no children, but is fond of naming inanimate objects: in the Netherlands she owned a Dutch bicycle called Kim Kardashian, and a small, inflatable velociraptor called Herbert. <i>Our Chemical Hearts </i>is her debut novel. <p/></p>
