I’m from Brazil! I currently live in São Paulo, with a lot of books and a dachshund named Vina.

The book is about a young Latina pilot who finds herself grounded and alone after a devastating alien attack. She finds hope in a dog and an unlikely group of survivors called The Last Teenagers on Earth. You can learn more about it here.

THE LAST 8 is a duology. THE FIRST 7 is the second book.

THE GRIMROSE GIRLS is the story of four girls who are reimagined fairytale princesses, and who must investigate a curse which took the life of their best friend. It’s going to be a duology, and you can learn more about it here.

It’s now called THE GRIMROSE GIRLS and it’s already out. We changed the title and the cover, but the story remains the same and you can already read it.

ARCs can be requested through my publisher, Sourcebooks Fire.
