I am utterly addicted to Adriana Mather's electric debut. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, twisting and turning with ghosts, witches, an ancient curse, and - sigh - romance. It's beautiful. Haunting. The characters are vivid and real. I. Could. Not. Put. It. Down. Jennifer Niven, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places and Holding Up the Universe
Adriana writes, I was born in New York on Long Island, and even though I don't have a New York accent I have a deep love for coffee, public transportation and fast-paced everything. I went to Vassar College and studied religion and biology, which brought me to the Himalayas in India for a year where I lived with Tibetan monks and nuns. When I graduated, I moved to Los Angeles, California and started making movies. I started writing for fun. And when I got 100 pages in, I thought "Ima do this thing and write a book." I got a fair amount of laughs for that, which only brought me to the conclusion that I was not only going to write it, but I was also going to sell it.
