Den of Liars is out in the world!
Now she's yours
Holy cow. It’s July. Den of Liars is officially on shelves today, and to say this doesn’t feel real would be an understatement. It’s been so long since we sold this book to Macmillan that in many ways, it’s felt so perpetually “in the future” that I’m not sure if it will ever fully sink in that it no longer is. It’s now. What???
This isn’t going to be a long newsletter—mostly because I just barely emailed you all two weeks ago for the June issue, and I don’t want to bog down your inboxes ahead of the upcoming holiday weekend. But also because my brain is mush and I’ve got a million things to do now that today has (finally!) arrived.
When I started out my publishing career, I never expected to have a gap between books as big as the one between A Forgery of Roses (March 2022) and this one. But, as life does sometimes, 2022 threw a hardball that broke me for a bit. I didn’t write for months. I feared I might not be able to write again. It felt too hard too much too raw.
And then Den of Liars happened.
She isn’t a perfect book—no book is—but she showed me I wasn’t broken. Showed me I was still an author. Was still me, after everything. Showed me just how far I’d come and how much I’d grown.
And now she’s yours. I hope you love her. I sure do.
Thank you very much another great story. I'm on earliest chapters but I can already see it's masterpiece potential. I enjoyed it and be gone to the world of Den of Liars for days. To be honest, I feared it will not meet my expectations. We we waited for it for a long time and it was also common that your most anticipated book disappoints you the most. All is well. You still get your super powers. ❤️
