Jenni Howell is the author of Boys with Sharp Teeth, a New York Times bestseller and most anticipated young adult novel of 2025 according to Goodreads, Paste magazine, The Nerd Daily, and more. She is also the author of Teach Me to Prey and Most Accomplished Liars. She has dabbled in archaeology, espionage, heavy construction, and the equally mind-boggling career of middle school teacher. Now she writes words that have been called “BATSHIT” by Maggie Stiefvater and “darkly delicious” by New York Times bestselling author C.G. Drews.

Jamie Howard is a storyteller fueled by equal parts coffee and color-coded spreadsheets. You can find her hiding from first drafts and people behind a camera lens, baking more bread than is probably wise, or traveling in any spare moment she can find. She lives in New Jersey with her husband, a rotating cast of foster dogs, and four children that ensure her true home is actually a variety of hockey rinks and baseball fields.
