KIM SAVAGE is the author of the critically acclaimed In Her Skin (ALA Best YA Fiction 2019; Eliot Rosewater Finalist), Beautiful Broken Girls (Kirkus' 10 Best YA 2017), and After the Woods (Kirkus and School Library Journal starred; Booklist’s Top 10 YA Crime Fiction), all with Farrar, Straus, Giroux.
