Everyone at school knows Andrew Jennings. Missing an arm. Openly gay. But when he meets star athlete Ryan Sullivan in therapy, can friendship lead to more? ***** When Andrew 'Jacky' Jennings ends up in therapy after an English assignment gone wrong, he doesn't expect to find his high school's star athlete, Ryan Sullivan, sitting in the same waiting room. After all, he and Ryan couldn't be more different: football captain, future valedictorian, and all-around nice guy, Ryan is the school's golden boy, while Andrew is known for his permanent snarl, being openly gay, and losing his left arm (along with his father and sister) in a car accident. But when Andrew learns they actually have a lot in common, he's surprised to see past the enigma that is Ryan Sullivan and his seemingly perfect life. And as the two boys begin to connect over their shared grief, depression, and teenage angst, they might just discover a little pocket of happiness for themselves -- if they're willing to fight for it.

All Stephanie wants is to look cool in trendy bars. All LP wants is for the universe to stop collapsing. Annoyingly for LP, Stephanie might be the only person who can help. I can explain this book as a list of questions: Why is there a poetry book from another universe in the college library? Was there a universe before this one? And did any part of it survive? Why is granddad's hot chocolate recipe so important to all of this? Is there an afterlife? Is time real? What is love?

I want to thank everyone who is buying and talking about Who Built The Humans? because without you, I wouldn't have the time to get back into writing with Stephanie. I have missed her terribly.
