About this listen
A deeply emotional novel about identity, memory, and the power of choice—perfect for fans of Matt Haig’s The Midnight Library and Emily St. John Mandel’s Sea of Tranquility.
What if the biggest “what if” of your life wasn’t hypothetical?
Auren Solven thought they had buried the past. But when dreams lead them to a forgotten bookstore and a mysterious antique mirror, they step into a world shaped by one decision they never made.
In this parallel version of reality, everything seems better: a thriving career, a love that stayed, and a life that feels... almost perfect. But something isn’t right. As cracks begin to show, Auren must ask:
Is this the life I was meant to live—or just a haunting echo of regret?
As timelines blur and old wounds resurface, Auren must face the version of themselves they tried to forget—and decide what it truly means to stay.
The Version Who Stayed is a genre-bending blend of emotional realism and speculative fiction. It’s for anyone who’s ever looked in the mirror and wondered what if.
For fans of:
- Literary sci-fi with emotional depth
- Parallel universe and multiverse fiction
- Quiet coming-of-age journeys
- LGBTQ+ reflective storytelling
- Books that stay with you long after the last word
