Search History: A Novel

Can you scroll your way to the truth? After Ana flees to Melbourne in the wake of a breakup, all she has to show for herself is an unfulfilling job and one particularly questionable dating app experience. Then she meets Evan: the old-fashioned way, at a bar. Charming, kind, and responsible, Evan is a complete deviation from her usual type. Ana tries to let their relationship unfold IRL, but she can´t resist the urge to find him online. When she discovers that his previous girlfriend died in a hit-and-run, Ana begins to worry that she´s living in the shadow of his lost love. The more Ana learns about Evan´s past, the more questions she has: Was his last relationship as perfect as it looks online? And why won´t he talk about it? Perceptive and original, full of both pathos and humor, Search History explores the uncertainties of twenty-first-century romance. Ana´s journey down the internet rabbit hole of modern dating asks the question: Which is our "true" self-the one we should to the world online, or the one we keep to ourselves?
