edit data

Gigi Griffis is a critically acclaimed author of novels for adults and teens, including We Are The Beasts, The Lioness, and And the Trees Stare Back (a JLG Gold Standard Selection).

She’s a sucker for little-known histories, “unlikable” female characters, and all things Europe. After almost ten years of semi-nomadic life, she now lives in Portugal with an opinionated Yorkie-mix named Luna and a collection of very nerdy books.
