Lizzie K. Foley has an MA in Education from Harvard and has taught Women’s Studies at Northeastern University, but this novel was inspired by her experience as the unremarkable little sister of two exceptionally remarkable big sisters. Lizzie didn’t have her oldest sister’s photographic memory or the coolness of her middle sister, who was a model, but, in her own words, she “made it through junior high and high school without being noticed by anyone or achieving anything of note—which is kind of an accomplishment in and of itself.” Lizzie currently lives in Montclair, New Jersey, with her husband and son and four poorly trained dogs.

Quotes by Lizzie K. Foley (?)

“But dreams are funny things. Sometimes even the most impractical and irresponsible dreams just won't be ignored. And sometimes when you don't follow your dreams, your dreams come looking for you.”

“Don't you ever get in trouble for things like that at the school for the Incredibly gifted?" Jane asked. "No," Merissa said sadly. "Our talent is mischief, so whenever we do something bad they just encourage us to try harder.”
― Lizzie K. Foley, Remarkable
