Biography

Laura Creedle is the author of The Deep Well and The Love Letters of Abelard and Lily, which Kirkus Reviews described as “entertaining, thought-provoking, and unsettling—in a good way.” When she’s not writing, Laura can usually be found playing pinball or watching indie horror. She lives in Austin, Texas, with her husband and a feral cat named Hellman who was found with her head stuck in a mayonnaise jar.

Reviews

"Entertaining, thought-provoking, and unsettling—in a good way." —Kirkus   "Creedle’s debut novel is rich and thoughtful…" —Booklist   "Readers will be moved by the sacrifices the teens make for each other, and the open-ended conclusion invites speculation while providing reassurance that the bonds formed between these characters won’t easily be broken." —Publishers Weekly   "A thought-provoking story to fill that empty space on YA shelves for tales of realistic fiction, romance, and humor."–School Library Journal   "Creedle crafts Lily and Abelard’s story with canny insight…Readers will fall in love with their love."–BCCB —
