I Am Not Jessica Chen

From the author of I Hope This Doesn't Find You comes a new page-turning speculative YA about a girl who wishes she could be as perfect and successful as her cousin… and wakes up the next morning in her cousin’s body.




After getting rejected by every single Ivy League she applied to and falling short of all her Asian immigrant parents’ expectations, seventeen-year-old Jesse Chen makes a wish to become her smarter, infinitely more successful Harvard-bound cousin, Jessica Chen—only for her wish to come true. Literally.




Now trapped inside Jessica’s body, with access to Jessica’s most private journals and secrets, Jesse soon discovers that being the top student at the elite, highly competitive Havenwood Private Academy isn’t quite what she imagined. Worse, as everyone—including her own parents—start having trouble remembering who Jesse Chen is, or if she ever even existed, Jesse must decide if playing the role of the perfect daughter and student is worth losing her true self forever.
