SOLVED. YA Realistic Fiction about girl with missing finger stuck during a (snow?) storm with the "golden boy" runs secret account having to do with nightshade and grieving for her father. [s]

[Vaageesha]

the mc has a missing finger and she runs a secret account where it's kinda like reacting to/posting gossip? i think the account had something to do with nightshade (her dad theorized that that's how romeo in romeo and juliet killed himself). i'm not sure but maybe her dad died as well or something?

anyways, there's a (snow?) storm and she's stuck in a library or light tower or something with the "golden boy" and she had posted a video about him and his dad where his dad was drunk and it was a very personal secret she essentially exposed but he doesn't know she's the one who did it. i think he had also mentioned that he hates the person who runs the account.

it also takes place in new jersey --- her best friend is a brown/Indian kid named Neil. her name i believe started with "T" (i might be wrong) and I think it was Tara or something.

iirc the cover's background was light blue and in yellow had like a light tower with the girl sitting on it, facing the other direction. the cover wasn't realistic, it was almost as though it had been painted (but like animatedly if that makes sense lol)

i believe i saw this book in like barnes and noble/walmart around 2019? maybe 2020? could even be a lil after that

Maybe We're Electric by Val Emmich sounds like your book. What do you think?
