The Ones We’re Meant to Find by Joan He
Cee awoke on an abandoned island three years ago. With no idea of how she was marooned, she only has a rickety house, some basic survival skills, an old android, and a single memory: she has a sister, and she needs to find her.
STEM prodigy Kay wants to escape from the home she once trusted. The Metropolis is Earth’s last unpolluted place, meant to be a sanctuary for those committed to planetary protection. As Kay gets older, she realizes the Metropolis is populated by people willing to do anything for refuge. Now, she’ll have to decide if she’s ready to use science to help humanity, even though it failed the people who mattered most to her.
This sci-fi novel is perfect for fans of Marie Lu’s Legend series, and for fans of the Maze Runner books. Stick with it through the twists and turns for a really satisfying finish.

celia had loved the sea. loved the whitecaps that foamed like milk, the waltz of sunlight atop the peaks. kasey did not. the sea was a trillion strands of hair, infinitely tangled on the surface and infinitely dense beneath. it distorted time: minutes passed like hours and hours passed like minutes out there. it distorted space, made the horizon seem within reach. and it was the perfect place for hiding secrets.

The Ones We’re Meant To Find by Joan He
Cee has been trapped on an abandoned island for three years without any recollection of how she arrived, or memories from her life prior. All she knows is that somewhere out there, beyond the horizon, she has a sister named Kay, and it’s up to Cee to cross the ocean and find her.
In a world apart, 16-year-old STEM prodigy Kasey Mizuhara lives in an eco-city built for people who protected the planet―and now need protecting from it. With natural disasters on the rise due to climate change, eco-cities provide clean air, water, and shelter. Their residents, in exchange, must spend at least a third of their time in stasis pods, conducting business virtually whenever possible to reduce their environmental footprint. While Kasey, an introvert and loner, doesn’t mind the lifestyle, her sister Celia hated it. Popular and lovable, Celia much preferred the outside world. But no one could have predicted that Celia would take a boat out to sea, never to return.
Now it’s been three months since Celia’s disappearance, and Kasey has given up hope. Logic says that her sister must be dead. But nevertheless, she decides to retrace Celia’s last steps. Where they’ll lead her, she does not know. Her sister was full of secrets. But Kasey has a secret of her own.
