At their twenty-fifth high school reunion, four former best friends discover that growing up is way messier than anticipated—and the past isn’t nearly as finished as they thought.
Back in senior year, Audrey, Micah, Jasmine and Beck were the Core Four: the lucky one, the beautiful one, the smart one, the sporty one. They had color-coded dreams, inside jokes and a lifelong friendship they thought would last forever. But graduation night ended in a tragic accident, followed by the kind of silence that stretches for decades.
Now, they’ve returned for their reunion, each carrying a life that looks nothing like the glossy future they imagined. There are stalled careers, complicated marriages, outspoken adult children and secrets that never fit into holiday cards. For one of them, a diagnosis of early-onset dementia turns the weekend into a ticking clock.
Across one unforgettable weekend, the Core Four must decide if their past can still change their future together.

Commentaires
“Poignant writing and solid descriptions of dementia’s impact make for a touching story of how it’s never too late to be who we really are.” —Booklist
“The Me I Used to Be is a two-tissue-box read (possibly three, just to be safe), but it’s not a tearjerker—there’s nothing gimmicky about it. This book confronts the complexities of friendship and love and ambition with honesty and heart as the characters learn to do the same. Required reading for everyone in midlife trying to make sense of where they are and where they want to be.” —Lauren Willig, New York Times bestselling author
“A restorative, redemptive, heartbreakingly beautiful story about life, love and the power of female friendship. I loved it.” —Paige Toon, international bestselling author of Don’t Fall in Love with Me
