Do you want some magical realism YA focusing on a wlw couple? Do you want a dramatic, starcrossed queer teen romance that isn’t focused on internalized homophobia or coming out, but psychic powers and the question of predestination? Do you like stories about fighting fate, learning to love yourself and healing? Do you want to support a queer, mentally-ill author in her quest to get more varied stories out there about queer, mentally-ill young women? I’ve got good news for you!
Blurb: Gloomy teenager Manee Srikwan wears long sleeves and keeps her hands to herself for a good reason–whenever she touches a person for the first time, she sees a vision of how they will die. Manee’s weird powers cause those around her nothing but misery and she’s long resigned herself to a life of loneliness. But her vivacious classmate, Stephanie Pierce, changes all that. She smashes through every wall Manee puts up and overturns every expectation.
Much to Manee’s shock, Stephanie believes her about her powers. What’s more, she insists they can stop the deaths Manee sees from happening. When the two of them are together, it feels like they can do anything.
As the girls grow closer, Manee’s feelings for Stephanie blossom into love. She yearns to be more intimate but is anxious about breaking her all-important “hands-off ” rule. When she finally gives in to temptation, she sees a terrifying future where Stephanie is murdered — and Manee is her killer! Now Manee has a choice to make— will she fight this fate or let it rule her?
Trigger warnings: This book centers on death and grieving, including death of minors and suicide. It also explores mental illness, mainly depression and anxiety issues, with some suicidal ideation. Emotional and physical child abuse is an element touched upon as well.
