Rey has the fight. Eli has the gift. But when the world keeps taking from him and offering her nothing worth taking, it’s a battered notebook full of crossed-out dreams that finally shows them the path forward — together.
Astra June (aka @AuthornautAstra) hates referring to herself in the third person, but since she's told it’s the industry standard, please imagine her cringing as she writes this. 😅
Astra navigates the inner universes of her characters through the lens of her own neurodivergence, mental health struggles, and the general human messiness she embodies.
In her books, you will find:
🌈 Queer stories
❤️🩹 Emotional damage & high angst
🧠 Neurospiciness & realistic mental health rep
🔥 Other assorted spices as needed
✨ Earned intimacy & no cheap drama
💖 Happy endings. Guaranteed.
From her roots in fanfiction to her debut novel 🏇 Rein Ready, Astra is dedicated to 'Happily Ever Afters for the Beautifully Messy,' and her stories are a refusal of perfection—
No, scratch that. They're about flipping the table at perfection, spitting on its face, and then laughing maniacally while her demons cower in the corner.
Yeah, that's more like it. 😈
Oh, and she's a writer. Did she mention that? You'd think she'd open with it, right...?
