Amy McCaw is a YA writer and BookTuber. She's the author of the 'Mina and the Undead' series, a YA murder mystery set in 1995 New Orleans. She also curated 'A Taste of Darkness' YA horror anthology.

Her main interests are books, movies and the macabre, and her debut novel has elements of all of these. If Amy's not at a book event or reading, she can usually be found scribbling away in her writing room, surrounded by movie memorabilia and an out-of-control signed books collection.

Amy also loves travelling and has a particular affinity for America. She's visited 29 states, 13 Man Vs Food restaurants a ...more

Amy McCaw and 1 other person liked Robyn Daile's review of They Own the Night: "I love a good Dracula retelling and this 80s, queer romance version did not disappoint! The plot was a little slow to begin with but I really enjoyed the third act!"
