Summary |
Fifteen-year-old Yasmin Doner is a social misfit--obese, obsessive and deemed a freak by her peers at school. With her father dead and her mother in a new relationship, Yasmin yearns for a sense of belonging, finding comfort only in food and the fantasy of being close to Alice Taylor, a girl at school. Yasmin will do anything to become friends with pretty and popular Alice--even if Alice, like everyone else, thinks she's a freak. |
