A gorgeous own-voices love story with a twist - now with
an additional swoony story set during a trip to California!
Seventeen-year-old Sadie Wen is perfect on paper.
It's a reputation she's fought hard to earn at the highly prestigious
Woodvale Academy, and one she's determined to maintain
until graduation.
The trick to keeping her model-student-smile plastered on her
face at all times? She channels all her petty frustrations into her
email drafts.
One for the math teacher who refused to round her eighty-nine-point-nine
percent up to ninety;
one for the girl who blatantly copied her science project and
took the credit for it.
But most of her vehemently-worded emails are for her smug, infuriating
co-captain, Julius Gong, who's been the sharpest thorn in
her side ever since they were kids.
Sadie never meant for these emails to get out
... but now her whole life is about to change...
From the author of THIS TIME IT'S REAL comes another
own-voices love story with a high-concept twist, now with a brand-new
sequel story that also features Julius's POV!
Perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Crazy Rich Asians,
this is a romance that is pure serotonin
Gorgeously page-turning and endlessly readable, I HOPE THIS
DOESN'T FIND YOU is perfect for BookTok and the Netflix generation
