Artifacts of An Ex

In the tradition of Jenny Han and Emma Lord, Jennifer Chenâs Artifacts of an Ex is a story of love, art, and finding your way when everything you know has changed completely.

When Chloe Chang gets dumped via USPS after moving across the county from NYC to LA, her first instinct is to throw her box of memories in the garbage. Instead, she starts buying other teenagersâ break-up boxes to create an art exhibit, Heartifacts. Opening night is going great, until she spots Daniel Kwak illicitly filming his best friendâs reaction to his exâs box. When she tries to stop him, an intense discussion ends up launching a creative partnership and friendship⦠and a major crush for Chloe.

Thereâs just one problem: Daniel is dead set on not being another rebound.

Five times heâs been the guy who makes the girls heâs dating realize they want to get back with their ex. And he refuses for there to be a sixth. She insists sheâs over her ex, but when he shows up unexpectedly with his new girlfriend, it turns out Daniel was right. She isnât ready for a new relationship.

She throws herself into making Heartifacts successful, but flashy influencers threaten her original vision of the exhibit. To create the exhibit sheâs always wanted, Chloe needs to go back to basics, learn to work with artists in a more collaborative way, and discover what love can be. Only then will she convince Daniel sheâs truly ready for everything they could be to one another.
