You know, I’ve decided to give up on dystopian fiction.

It’s just not popular in the wonderful, peaceful, perfect world we live in 🤷🏻‍♀️

Think I’ll write some contemporary uplit instead, from now on.

I’m going to the 15th anniversary of Twilight at the cinema and Naomi Gibson just sent me this. Did I think in a million years I’d write a YA book that would sit in a bookshop next to Twilight? I read Twilight when I was a teen. Life is STRANGE but also lovely sometimes. @waterstones.bsky.social

Really lovely review overnight from goodreads. If you want to scream so loud your mum asks you if you’re ok, grab a copy here:
