Publisher's summary

Two young girls. Two disparate stories. One unlikely friendship....

Dani comes from the richest, most famous Black family in Texas and seems to have everything a girl could want. So why does she keep using and engaging in other self-destructive behavior?

Camila's Colombian-American family doesn't have much, but she knows exactly what she wants out of life and works her ass off to get it. So why does she keep failing, and why does she self-harm every time she does?

When Dani and Camila find themselves rooming together at Peach Tree Hills, a treatment facility in beautiful rural Georgia, they initially think they'll never get along—and they'll never get better. But then they find a mysterious music box filled with letters from a former resident of PTH, and together they set out to solve the mystery of who this girl was . . . and who she's become. The investigation will bring them together, and what they find at the end might just bring them hope.

From award-winning author Stephanie Kuehn comes a breathtaking tale of friendship and healing. Both poignant and timely, We Weren't Looking to Be Found is complex, hopeful, and heartbreaking all at once.

Nothing new or different

I’ve been a fan of Stephanie Kuehn since her first novel so I looked forward to reading WE’RE NOT LOOKING TO BE FOUND about two teenagers struggling with mental health and addiction issues inside a progressive, inclusive treatment facility.

The Audible narration was the best part of WE’RE NOT LOOKING TO BE FOUND, with two distinct, equally compelling voices,

I’m always glad to see more books on mental health with main characters of color, but WE’RE NOT LOOKING TO BE FOUND adds nothing new or unique to the body of YA novels currently on the market.

I didn’t like that WE’RE NOT LOOKING TO BE FOUND started with a content warning, which I believe infantilizes readers without teaching them they can stop reading a book is upsetting. Additionally nothing in the warning wasn’t also on the blurb.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
