Cynthia Timoti writes fun multicultural romcoms with plenty of heart and snark, where happy endings are always guaranteed. She was born and raised in Jakarta, Indonesia, and moved to Australia when she was seventeen. She later studied Commerce and spent too many years working in finance, even though numbers aren’t her strongest suit.

When she isn’t writing, she's probably trying to make a dent in her TBR pile, hunting for the perfect cup of bubble tea, and collecting pretty notebooks that she’ll never use. Cynthia currently resides in Melbourne with her husband and two sons.

If I could give this book 10 stars, I would. It's. So. Good. It's perfect. I thought First-Time Caller was going to be my top book of 2025, but no, I've changed my mind, because it's going to be Good Spirits. It's beautiful, and festive, and magical, ...more

Quotes by Cynthia Timoti  (?)

“My condition isn't an impediment. I'm not defined by it, and it doesn't limit me. It doesn't make me less, or different, and even if I fail, I'll just get back up and try again. So please don't come back into my life, unless you understand it isn't yours to run.”
Cynthia Timoti, Salty, Spiced, and a Little Bit Nice

“First of all, I'm an adult. A human being. Not a fucking baton you can simply pass back to my family once the going gets tough. Second, I am perfectly capable of looking after myself. Get that through your thick skull. I didn't need you, my family, or anyone else in the world to watch over me, or wait on me hand and foot." I paused. "And finally, I don't need someone who gives up on me after one hypo episode. Yes, they can be fatal. But it won't be if you learn how to manage them. It's not an excuse to freak out and pull the plug on a relationship. Do you know how many I've had since I was diagnosed? Hundreds. Maybe even thousands. And there's probably another few thousand in my future. It's part and parcel of having diabetes." I took a deep breath. "Obviously you're not the man I thought you were, because if you can't handle that, then we can't be together. I need someone who can be there for me, who's resilient enough to go through the ups and downs with me, because trust me, there will be plenty of them.”
Cynthia Timoti, Salty, Spiced, and a Little Bit Nice

“You sure you're okay?"
"I'm fine, really." He gave me a smile. "He didn't hit you, and that's all that matters."
And that was when it struck me. A realization so overwhelming, as if I were about to drown in the ocean behind me, the splashing waves refusing to let go until I gave in and acknowledged it.
That I was in love with this man.”
Cynthia Timoti, Salty, Spiced, and a Little Bit Nice
