PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Lillie Vale is the young adult author of ALA's 2020 Rainbow Books List honoree Small Town Hearts and Beauty and the Besharam. Born in Mumbai, she grew up in Mississippi, Texas, and North Dakota. She writes about girls fighting back, the liminality of between-places, the myriad ways in which we're haunted, and the sometimes monstrous sentience of nature. Vale lives in an Indiana college town where the corn whispers and the familiar is made unfamiliar. Her debut adult romantic comedy, The Shaadi Scam, releases in 2021. She can be reached on Twitter @LillieLabyrinth and Instagram @labyrinthspine, or visit her website lillielabyrinth.com.
