Books like The Me I Meant to Be

Elizabeth Bewley at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt has bought in a preempt two contemporary YA novels by Sophie Jordan, Girl Code and Guy Code. Told from alternating points of view, Girl Code follows two best friends who make—and subsequently break—rules for navigating the world of guys, school, parties, and family. Guy Code will explore a similar set of rules, but from alternating male perspectives. Publication for the first book is set for January 2019; Maura Kye-Casella at Don Congdon Associates negotiated the deal for world English rights.
