Description


Jessi Kirbys books just keep getting better and better, and The Secret History of Us is her best yet. It beautifully touches on all the most important things in lifelove, family, friendship, memory, and bacon. I loved it.Morgan Matson, New York Times bestselling author of The Unexpected Everything

In this gorgeously written, emotional novel that fans of Sarah Dessen will enjoy, a teenage girl must piece together the parts of her life she doesnt remember after a severe collision leaves her with no memory of the past four years.

When Olivia awakes in a hospital bed following a near-fatal car accident, she cant remember how she got there. She figures its because she was in a coma for a week, but as time goes on, she realizes shes lost more than just the last week of her lifeshes lost all memory of events that happened years ago. Gone is any recollection of starting or graduating high school; the prom; or her steady boyfriend Matt. Trying to figure out who she is feels impossible when everyone keeps telling her who she was.

As Liv tries to sort out her family and friends perceptions of her, the one person she hasnt heard enough from is Walker, the guy who saved her the night her car was knocked off that bridge into the bay below. Walker is the hardened boy whos been keeping his distance and the one person that has made Liv feel like her old self...whoever that is. With feelings growing for Walker, tensions rising with Matt, and secrets she cant help but feel are being kept from her, Olivia must find her place in a life she doesnt remember living.
