Synopsis

“It’s rare that a book can be as funny and absolutely delightful as it is moving and thought provoking, and Anatomy of a Misfit is both.” -Lauren Oliver, author of Before I Fall

Anika Dragomir is the third-most-popular girl at Pound High School. But inside, she knows she’s a freak; she can’t stop thinking about former loner Logan McDonough, who showed up on the first day of tenth grade hotter, bolder, and more mysterious than ever.

Logan is fascinating, troubled, and off limits. The Pound High queen bee will make Anika’s life hell if she’s seen with him.

So Anika must choose—ignore her feelings and keep her social status? Or follow her heart and risk becoming a pariah. Which will she pick? And what will she think of her choice when an unimaginable tragedy strikes, changing her forever? Part Morgan Matson, part Nicola Yoon, this incredible YA voice narrates a story Teen Vogue calls, “perfection in book form.”

 

• Sarcastic Heroine: Meet Anika Dragomir, #3 on the popularity list, who feels more like a freak than a queen. She knows all the rules of high school, but she’s about to break every one of them.
• Secret High School Romance: He’s the mysterious loner she can’t stop thinking about. But being seen with Logan McDonough means social suicide, enforced by the meanest queen bee at Pound High.
• Coming of Age Story: A poignant and funny story about choosing between fitting in and following your heart. Anika’s choice seems difficult enough, until tragedy changes the stakes forever.
• A Tragic Romance: Prepare for an emotional read that is as funny and witty as it is moving. This unforgettable story explores the cost of love and the moments that define a life.
