J. Elle discusses & signs HOUSE OF MARIONNE with Jessica S. Olson
About this Event
J. Elle is the New York Times bestselling author of young adult and middle-grade fantasy fiction and a 2022 NAACP Image Award Nominee for Outstanding Literary Work for Youth and Teens. The former educator credits her nomadic lifestyle and humble inner-city beginnings as inspiration for her novels. When she’s not writing, Elle can be found on the hunt for desserts without chocolate, looking for any excuse to get dressed up, and road-tripping her way across the country with her two dogs in tow.
Jessica S. Olson is the author of "fantastical, murderous, and romantic" (Kirkus) Young Adult books. A former copyeditor who claims the untamed greenery of New Hampshire as home, she currently lives in Texas with her husband, four children, and carefully curated supply of snacks. Her books have received starred reviews, have been featured in book boxes and selected for librarian/bookseller accolades, and can be found translated into several languages in multiple countries around the world. She is the author of Sing Me Forgotten, A Forgery of Roses, and the upcoming Den of Liars duology (2025). In her free time, she plays the piano and flute, participates in community theater, and binge-eats carbohydrates.
