The Girl Who Was
Simone is missing.
Her name is on every screen, every hallway whisper, every candle at the vigil. But no one seems to agree on who she really was.
Some say she was a saint.
Some say she was a liar.
Some say she had it coming.
Jada doesn’t claim to have known Simone best.
She wasn’t her friend. Not really. But she watched her—closer than anyone else. And now, Jada is the only one who can rewind the truth.
Told in reverse over the fourteen days leading up to Simone’s disappearance, The Girl Who Was is a haunting young adult thriller that blurs the line between admiration and obsession. As Jada pieces together the fragments of Simone’s life, she’s forced to confront not only who Simone was—but what Jada herself might have done.
