Things I Never Said is a deeply emotional coming-of-age novel about Maya — the quiet girl who fades into hallways, smiles politely, and says “I’m fine” even when she’s breaking inside. At college, at home, and even with the people who love her, Maya carries herself like a whisper—until one day, she chooses not to stay silent anymore.Through late-night journaling, unexpected friendships, and a slow-burn connection with a boy who sees her beyond words, Maya begins to rediscover her voice. This story is a tender, powerful reminder of the strength it takes to choose yourself — even when no one else does.
