“Mixing snark with romance, ‘I Hope This Doesn’t Find You’ combines the vibes of ‘Never Have I Ever’ with a twist of ‘To All the Boys’ where Lara Jean swaps love letters for hate-filled emails.
Sadie Wen appears flawless on paper: school captain, valedictorian, and the epitome of a perfect student. Maintaining her polished facade isn’t easy, but she has a secret coping mechanism: venting her frustrations into unsent email drafts. She’d never dream of actually sending them – the thought of hurting someone’s feelings is unbearable – but it’s cathartic to unleash her annoyance on her overbearing English teacher or a classmate taking credit for her work.
Her most scathing emails are reserved for her infuriating co-captain, Julius Gong, whose arrogance and competitiveness have grated on Sadie since childhood. “You’re insufferably attention-seeking, self-absorbed, and vain… I sincerely wish your comb breaks and you run out of your fancy hair products that falsely promise silky hair…”

In an instant, Sadie’s meticulously crafted, conflict-avoidant life is thrown into chaos. It’s her worst nightmare – now everyone at school knows her unfiltered opinions, and they’re not shy about sharing theirs with her either. But amidst the turmoil, one person starts to appreciate the “real” Sadie – Julius, the very boy she’s sworn to despise…”
