For every reader who grew up loving R.J. Palacio’s Wonder comes a hilarious, heartbreaking, and magical YA debut about what it means to accept the body you’re given.

What if the empty space was what made you whole?

Morgan Stone was born with a hole in her middle: a perfectly smooth, sealed, fist-sized chunk of nothing near her belly button. After seventeen years of hiding behind lumpy sweaters and a smart mouth, she decides to bare all. At first she feels liberated… until a few online photos snowball into a media frenzy. Now Morgan is desperate to return to her own strange version of normal - when only her doctors, her divorced parents, and her best friend, Caro, knew the truth.

Then a new doctor appears with a boy who may be both Morgan’s cure and her destiny. But what happens when you meet the person who is - literally - your perfect match? Is being whole really all it’s cracked up to be?
