THE BONE BRIDES is out TODAY! Hayao Miyazaki meets Guillermo del Toro in this Sapphic YA portal fantasy in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faery realm. I have waited since I was 7 years old to be able to say... GO FIND ME IN YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE! ❤️

Graphic proclaiming, “Now Available Everywhere Books are Sold!” above a copy of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter. “A marvelous, metaphorical masquerade.” –Kirkus Reviews. The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward. One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage. The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal. In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit. Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines. Very moody and atmospheric. The book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.

Trope map graphic for THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter, that includes “changeling x human romance”; “are skeleton rabbits cute?”; “mental illness rep”; “whimsical x spooky”; “a grumpy witch”; “don’t look up”; “a drowned faery realm”; and “queer girls in love.”

Ever wondered what a literary agent actually does? 📚 Literary agents are so much more than the person who sends a manuscript to a publisher. They discover talent, champion authors, navigate the publishing industry, negotiate deals, and help build careers.

Pre-orders are one of very best ways you can support an author...and it just so happens that for 3 days only, B&N is offering 25% off all pre-orders! Might I suggest taking this opportunity to give Future You the gift of a temperamental skeleton-rabbit, a drowned faeryland, and two girls in love?

Blue graphic that reads,
“25% off at Barnes & Noble!
code: PREORDER25"
&
“3/24-3/26 only!”
along with an image of the cover of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter. The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward. One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage. The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal. In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit. Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines. Very moody and atmospheric. The book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.
Beside the cover, text reads, “Hayao Miyazaki meets Guillermo del Toro in this Sapphic YA fantasy in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faery realm.”

Today is cover reveal day for THE BONE BRIDES, and I am vibrating like a star in the sky! Not in my wildest imaginings did I ever think I would have a cover this beautiful. THE BONE BRIDES comes out Sept 29th---with exquisite spredges exclusive to the first edition! Pre-order links in bio!

Blue graphic with glowing yellow text that reads, “COVER REVEAL!” and credits art to Marcela Bolívar and design to Caitlyn Boyd. The cover revealed is that of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter. The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward. One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage. The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal. In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit. Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines. Very moody and atmospheric. The graphic also shows that the book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.

Blue graphic (with the book’s cover watermarked beneath) that reads, “About the Book” followed by the tagline, “Hayao Miyazaki meets Guillermo del Toro in this Sapphic YA portal fantasy in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faery realm,” and the synopsis: “Nola James can handle it. She can handle that her father is dead. She can handle that her friends, bored with her grief, left her behind. Nola James has to handle it because Lumi―the love of her life and a faery changeling―is in danger. Not only is Lumi's human mother trying to kill her, but she’s being hunted by veiled monsters that want to return her to the fae. Hiding out in an abandoned cabin with only a skeleton-rabbit for company is hard, but Nola can handle it. And she does.

Until Lumi is abducted.

In order to save her, Nola must enter the faery realm: a boggy world in which eyeless horses parade as brides, ghost-bees produce transformative honey, and skeletons dance in skin-colored cloaks. Aided by a witch-girl with uncertain motives, Nola uncovers the realm’s terrifying power over changelings. Unless Nola can outplay an abyssal faery queen and find the courage to let the world see her own pain, Lumi will be trapped―not only in faeryland but in a skin that’s not her own.” Finally, the graphic lists the book’s publication date as September 29t, 2026.

Trope map graphic for THE BONE BRIDES that includes, “queer girls in love”; “are skeleton rabbits cute?”; “portal fantasy”; “mental illness rep”; “don’t look up”; and “haunted figs.” It also includes the book’s publication date of September 29, 2026.

Two books I edited are out today: CHOIR GRRRL by Ashley Granillo (middle grade, contemporary, delightful) and BEYOND SEVEN FORESTS by Amanda McCrina (young adult, historical, gripping). I love them both. Read 'em. Thanks. @lernerbooks.bsky.social @missashleyjean.bsky.social @mccrina.bsky.social

Cover image for Choir Grrrl by Ashley Granillo. Full-color illustration. A tween girl sings into a microphone that she holds in her left hand while holding a guitar in her right hand. Her eyes are closed and her mouth is wide open. A purple spotlight shines down on her against a black background. She has long, wavy black hair with a short pink streak framing either side of her face. She wears a dark purple shirt, a black necklace, a black cuff on each wrist, and black nail polish. A wide diagonal strip of this image is missing, as if ripped out, revealing part of another image that stretches from the upper righthand corner to the lower lefthand corner of the cover. The alternate image shows the same girl’s body, clothed in a reddish-orange choir robe, against a light pink background with several rows of black musical staffs and notes. In this partial image, the girl’s hands hold a piece of paper instead of the guitar and microphone, though they still sport black nail polish. Title text is in uneven uppercase white lettering. Two short horizontal white lines underscore the last R and the L. Author name is in uneven title case white lettering in the bottom right corner.

Front cover of Beyond Seven Forests by Amanda McCrina. Bluish-white uppercase title text is stacked against a light blue snowy background. Numerous snowflakes dot the image. Sloping hills or mountains near the top of the image give way to a darker stretch of trees. Near the bottom right corner, surrounded by snow-covered ground, is a small house with a peaked roof and a tiny window that shines with yellow light. Author name, beneath the house and centered near the bottom of the page, is in uppercase red letters.

I recommend no fewer than 4 copies of any beloved book. A paperback for traveling and lending to friends, an eBook for reading with greasy snack fingers, an audio book so you know how the characters' names are actually pronounced, and a pristine hardcover to be buried with you like a pharaoh

If there is one list I’d like CRUZITA AND THE MARIACHEROS to make it’s your Christmas list. For any kid who has felt disconnected from their heritage, this book is for you. It’s a reminder that you’re not alone in your plight to discovering where you came from and where you’re capable of going.
