I HOPE THIS DOESN'T FIND YOU by Ann Liang

An unforgettable, snarky, and endlessly romantic young adult novel, I Hope This Doesn't Find You is Never Have I Ever meets To All the Boys I've Loved Before—if Lara Jean wrote brutally honest hate emails instead of romantic love letters. Navigating the high-stakes world of academic competition, secret frustrations, and unexpected romance, the story takes readers on a hilarious and deeply relatable journey in I HOPE THIS DOESN'T FIND YOU.

Sadie Wen is absolutely perfect on paper: school captain, stellar valedictorian, and a "pleasure to have in class." Keeping her model-student smile plastered on her face isn't easy, but she has a secret trick to cope with the pressure: she channels all her raw frustrations into her email drafts. She would never actually send them, of course—she'd rather die than hurt anyone's feelings—but it is a massive relief to let loose on her power-hungry English teacher or a freeloading classmate taking credit for her hard work.

The vast majority of her most vehemently worded emails are directed at her infuriating school co-captain, Julius Gong, whose arrogance and fierce competitive streak have irritated Sadie since they were kids. She doesn't hold back in her drafts because she believes nobody will ever read them... until they are all accidentally sent out to the entire school overnight.

Suddenly, Sadie's carefully crafted, conflict-free life is turned upside down. Everyone at school knows exactly what she thinks of them, and they aren't afraid to share their thoughts with her either. Yet, in the middle of this absolute social chaos, there is one person who begins to genuinely appreciate the real, unfiltered Sadie—Julius, the very boy she has sworn to hate.

This incredibly witty, charming, and fast-paced novel is written by Ann Liang, a New York Times bestselling author celebrated for her brilliant humor, adorable academic-rivals-to-lovers tropes, and deeply authentic young adult voices. It stands out as a beloved hit in the fiction best selling and young adult romance categories. The sparkling banter and emotionally resonant storytelling of Ann Liang ensure that readers will be hooked from the very first sent email, making I HOPE THIS DOESN'T FIND YOU a delightful and absolutely essential read.
