Isabella Galbraith is a YA author based in Canada. Her books often feature sarcastic protagonists (although she would argue that they’re just severely misunderstood) and, in 2021, she was selected to be a mentee for the final Pitch Wars class. Isabella graduated from Queen’s University with a B.A. in English Literature and a minor in Philosophy, and she is currently completing a Masters of English Literature. She spends her summers in her hometown of Niagara-on-the-Lake, Canada.
Sharp, subversive, and completely addictive. Galbraith’s debut is a heart-pounding ride, from its gripping beginning to its disarmingly poignant conclusion. * Becky Albertalli * Galbraith blends high-stakes survival with the deliciously messy drama of reality TV in a way that hooks you from the very first page. The One is packed with suspense, romance, and pulse-pounding twists. A thrilling debut! * Channelle Desamours, author of Needy Little Things * THE ONE is the kind of book you curl up to read on a stormy night, letting the characters and the premise sweep you away. Galbraith blends the mystery of an Agatha Christie novel with the unhinged flair of a reality TV show, and the result is a compelling narrative about the complexity of the human heart. Galbraith's characterisation across the board makes THE ONE a fun, heartfelt read. And Constance, the protagonist, though a little messy, is a gem--someone to root for, not despite her messiness, but because of it. * Tomi Oyemakinde, author of The Changing Man *
