Joy Preble is the brains behind some seriously cool YA books, like the Dreaming Anastasia series and the Sweet Dead Life series—think drama, danger, and a splash of supernatural. When she’s not writing stories to keep you up past bedtime, she’s crafting horror shorts for adults and picture books for the kiddos. She teaches writing too, because why not share the magic with the next gen of storytellers?
Crystal Allen’s books, like How Lamar’s Bad Prank Won a Bubba-Sized Trophy, The Laura Line, and her Magnificent Mya Tibbs series, are perfect for anyone who loves laugh-out-loud stories with tons of heart. Her characters are as relatable as your best friends, and her plots always keep you guessing. Dive into her world—you won’t be able to put these books down!
