With a mother who can barely look at her without wincing, classmates who whisper behind her back, and a father whose violent crime rocked her small town, sixteen-year-old physics nerd Aysel is ready to end it all and turn her potential energy into nothingness . . .   

A stunning novel about the transformative power of love, My Heart and Other Black Holes is an ideal choice for fans of Jay Asher's 13 Reasons Why, Lauren Myracle's Shine and/or Laurie Halse Anderson's Speak.

“Debut author Warga unflinchingly tackles the grim subject matter with empathy, sensitivity, and honesty, without trivializing her protagonists’ disturbing thoughts or emotions [in an] utterly endearing romance.” -- The Horn Book
