A New York Times Bestseller

*A BookTok Viral Sensation*

An achingly authentic and raw portrait of love, regret, and the life-altering impact of the relationships we hold closest to us, this YA romance bestseller is perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover, Jenny Han, and You've Reached Sam.

If he had been with me, everything would have been different…

Autumn and Finn used to be inseparable. But then something changed. Or they changed. Now, they do their best to ignore each other.

Autumn has her boyfriend Jamie, and her close-knit group of friends. And Finn has become that boy at school, the one everyone wants to be around.

That still doesn't stop the way Autumn feels every time she and Finn cross paths, and the growing, nagging thought that maybe things could have been different. Maybe they should be together.

But come August, things will change forever. And as time passes, Autumn will be forced to confront how else life might have been different if they had never parted ways…

Captivating and heartbreaking, If He Had Been with Me is perfect for readers looking for:

• Contemporary teen romance books
• Unputdownable & bingeworthy novels
• Complex emotional YA stories
• TikTok Books
• Jenny Han meets Dear Even Hanson
• Colleen Hover fans

    I just… I don’t see how this book had yall in tears, sobbing, sliding down the wall in agony. I personally didn’t like Autumn. I thought she was very delusional and close minded and rude. I felt she tried too hard to be different. I do hate that Phineas died. He’s the character I liked. But no… y’all definitely over hyped the book.
  • Great book

    This book is heartbreaking. I barely cry over books but for this one I did. This is a roller coaster of emotions.

    This was a good book. I do have to say the foreshadowing gives away a lot of the end, but it does keep you interested. Half way through the book I already figured the ending out. “Beauty through sadness” best describes everything
  • SO GOOD BUT THE ENDING OMG

    this book started out kinda slow but then after a few chapters I was hooked! It was so good BUT THE ENDING had me bawling my eyes out. Why would they do that to us after they literally got together 1 chapter ago! If you are a super sensitive person this book might not be for you lol
  • Great but

    I never thought it would end like this. I was reading this in school and almost broke down into tears. I have never felt more passionate about reading a book. No book will ever hurt me like this one did. I’m omw to buy the second one.

    This book is so good, I just hated the way it ended. I balled my eyes out for at least 10 minutes and I’m still sad. I definitely recommend!
