A heart-wrenching novel about best friends on a collision course with the real world from Amy Zhang, the critically acclaimed Indies Introduce and Indie Next author of Falling into Place.
Janie and Micah, Micah and Janie. That's how it's been ever since elementary school, when Janie Vivien moved next door. Janie says Micah is everything she is not. Where Micah is shy, Janie is outgoing. Where Micah loves music, Janie loves art. It's the perfect friendship--as long as no one finds out about it. But then Janie goes missing and everything Micah thought he knew about his best friend is colored with doubt.
Using a nonlinear writing style and dual narrators, Amy Zhang masterfully reveals the circumstances surrounding Janie's disappearance in an astonishing second novel that will appeal to fans of Lauren Oliver.
Micah has to piece together what happened before Janie disappeared. But what if the truth is a memory he can't survive?
- Unreliable Narrator: Micah wakes up in the hospital with amnesia. As he tries to unravel the mystery of Janie's disappearance, he discovers his own memories might be the biggest lie of all.
- Secret Friendship: For years, their friendship was a world no one else could enter. But their secrets had a price, and now Janie is gone.
- Dual POV: The story unfolds through Micah's fractured memories and the revealing pages of Janie's journal, piecing together a truth neither of them could face alone.
- A Heart-Wrenching Mystery: A dark, emotional story about the complexities of friendship, love, and loss that will leave readers breathless.
