Entry updated 28 November 2022. Tagged: Author.
(? - ) US author whose first novel, the Young Adult All Our Yesterdays (2013), confronts Time Paradox issues with surprising and salutary harshness, as the Near Future versions of the two contemporary young protagonists struggle with themselves and each other. Em/Marina must attempt to prevent her/their disturbingly attractive friend from creating a terrible future through the Invention of a Time Machine, but each attempt ends in disaster. The climax, which ends in death, is salutary. Though its storyline devolves into thriller country, The Stars Between Us (2022) features a barmaid on a hardscrabble planet who becomes heir to the estate of the richest man around. [JC]
