There is no party like a YA launch party and we are so excited to be launching two highly anticipated novels, Caraval and The Secret of a Heart Note, by two local favorite authors.

Stephanie Garber teaches creative writing at a private college in Northern California and blogs for PUB(LISHING) CRAWL. She's spent years working with youth: as a counselor at space-themed summer camp, at a school for deaf children in Mexico, and chaperoning college students to Amsterdam. Caraval, her debut novel, has sold in twenty-five foreign territories and the movie rights were pre-empted by Twentieth Century Fox.

You'll know Stacey Lee from her wonderful historical novels: Under a Painted Sky and Outrun the Moon. She's a fourth generation Chinese American, a native of Southern California, who practiced law in Silicon Valley for several years before writing YA novels.
