Two girls, two stories, one epic novel. From the bestselling author of Before I Fall and the Delirium trilogy comes a groundbreaking narrative exploring individuality, identity, and humanity. This "flip book" features two interwoven narratives, the first in a duology. Readers can choose to follow Lyra's story or Gemma's by flipping the book, or read them in alternating chapters. The innovative design enhances the reading experience. Lyra's journey begins at the Haven Institute, a seemingly serene research facility on a private island off Florida's coast. However, the reality is starkly different, with locked doors, military guards, and biohazard suits revealing a dark truth: Haven is where thousands of replicas, or human models, are created and monitored. When a surprise attack occurs, Lyra, known as 24, and a boy referred to as 72 manage to escape. On the other hand, Gemma has spent her life in and out of hospitals, feeling isolated with only her best friend, April, for company. After a near-abduction by a stranger who claims to know her, she delves into her family's past and uncovers her father's hidden ties to the enigmatic Haven facility. Driven by a quest for answers, she travels to Florida, where she encounters the two replicas and a web of new questions. The intertwining stories of Lyra and Gemma reveal breathtaking revelations that are crucial to understanding each other. This ambitious novel is a thought-provoking

Like its ambitious companion novel, Replica, this far-reaching novel by the powerhouse author of Before I Fall and the Delirium trilogy digs deep into questions of how to be a human being in a world where humanity cannot be taken for granted. In the world outside of the Haven Institute, Lyra and Caelum are finding it hard to be human—and Lyra, infected at Haven with a terrible disease, finds her symptoms are growing worse. When Caelum leaves without warning, Lyra follows him, seeking a pioneering organization in Philadelphia that might have a cure. But what they uncover there is a shocking connection to their past, even as their future seems in danger of collapsing. Though Gemma just wants to go back to her normal life after Haven, she soon learns that her powerful father has other plans for the replicas—unless she and her boyfriend Pete can stop him. But they soon learn that they aren’t safe either. The Haven Institute wasn’t destroyed after all, and now Gemma is the one behind the walls. Bestselling author Lauren Oliver brings the Replica duology to a shocking close in Ringer, but like both Gemma and Lyra, you won’t be able to leave the world of Haven behind after you’ve turned the last page.
