About the Author

Growing up a word-devourer and avid fairy tale lover, it was only natural that Amanda Lovelace began writing books of her own and so she did. when she isn’t reading or writing, she can be found waiting for pumpkin spice coffee to come back into season and binge-watching Gilmore Girls (before you ask: team Jess all the way). The lifelong poetess and storyteller currently lives in new jersey with her husband, their bunnycat and a combined book collection so large it will soon need its own home. She has her B.A. in english literature with a minor in sociology. Her first collection, the princess saves herself in this one, won the Goodreads choice award for best poetry of 2016.
