Who We Thought We Were - Paperback

Josie Hicks is not a nice person. Her best friend, Adam, is. Why the pair clicks is a mystery even to them, and if there's a bit of codependency going on by senior year at San Francisco State, well, Josie'll just say no one asked you.

Then she lands an almost-too-good-to-be-true housing deal: a luxurious room in an upscale neighborhood for an unbelievably low cost. If there's a catch, Josie will happily stay ignorant. But her new address reopens a door Adam's been trying to keep shut. Now, caught between a long-buried promise to his mother and the return of something he thought he'd left behind, Adam is forced to confront the only secret he's ever kept from Josie. As Adam begins to pull away, Josie finds herself floundering without the one person she's always relied on.

For the first time, the two find themselves on opposite sides of a divide neither knows how to cross.

Perfect for fans of messy, heartfelt friendships, emotional self-discovery, and the complicated ways love-platonic or otherwise-can shape us, Who We Thought We Were is a sharp, moving novel about finding yourself when the person who's always been by your side isn't there anymore.
