Elizabeth Gilbert
(1969 - )Sister of Catherine Gilbert Murdock
Elizabeth Gilbert was born in Waterbury, Connecticut, and grew up on a small family Christmas tree farm. From earliest memory, all she ever wanted to do was write. It is quite possibly genetic: Her sister, Catherine Gilbert Murdock, also became a writer, and is today the author of such beloved young adult novels as DAIRY QUEEN and PRINCESS BEN.
Elizabeth Gilbert lives in rural New Jersey with her husband, her garden, and far too many beloved pets. She is at work on a new novel.

Elizabeth Gilbert recommends
 Try (2006) Lily Burana "My God, it's refreshing to read a novel as good and rank and honest as Try." |  The Butterflies of Grand Canyon (2009) Margaret Erhart "I found many delights on these pages." |  The Typist (2010) Michael Knight "The Typist is Knight's best book yet. It reads with a combination of urgency and a quiet, rush-less pace to the novel's slow reveal. There is not a misstep, not a mislaid sentence. I believed and breathed every single word. This book awed me." | |
 Your Voice in My Head (2011) Emma Forrest "Unforgettable... I can't remember the last time I ever read such a blistering, transfixing story." |  Gone (2012) Cathi Hanauer "You will see yourself in these pages, and your heart will open wide." |  Heaven is Paved with Oreos (2013) (Dairy Queen, book 4) Catherine Gilbert Murdock "My sister's novel is a love letter to growing up, to Rome, and to family. I adored reading it." | |
 The Untold (2014) Courtney Collins "This extraordinary novel—propelled by the dark, rich talents of a truly brilliant writer—dazzles, staggers and amazes." |  Friendswood (2014) René Steinke "Steinke's sense of this small Texas town, with its explosive and interconnected lives and deaths, is absolutely masterful." |
