(b.Lisa McMann lives and writes in Phoenix, Arizona. She’s happily married to her husband Matt and has two awesome kids, Kilian and Kennedy. She’s a native of Holland, Michigan and lived there from her birth on February 27, 1968 until 2004. She then moved to Arizona, where she can admire the desert and the scary mountain lion her daughter spotted in the backyard one time. Lisa likes to unwind by watching HGTV or any cooking show ever. She shares her writing space with two obnoxious yet well-loved cats, and wakes up at 5:30am so she can climb the mountain in the back of her neighborhood before it gets too hot outside. Finally, Lisa would like you to know that she enjoys Mexican food of any variety as well as pistachios, avocados, and bacon.

Lisa McMann recommends
Paranormalcy (2010)
(Paranormalcy, book 1)
Kiersten White
"The most refreshing paranormal debut of the year."
Keeper of the Lost Cities (2012)
(Keeper of the Lost Cities, book 1)
Shannon Messenger
"A delightful and dangerous adventure with complex characters and relationships you'll root for to the end of time."
Messenger of Fear (2014)
(Messenger of Fear, book 1)
Michael Grant
"The enviably cunning and ever versatile Michael Grant explodes on the scene with Messenger of Fear, a palpitating horror fantasy mash-up with a genius twist that blew my mind. I walked through O'hare with this book in my face--I couldn't stop reading!"
Court (2014)
Cat Patrick
"Drama, mystery and romance in a present-day monarchy hidden inside the U.S. you've never read a book quite like Court."
Last Day on Mars (2017)
(Chronicle of the Dark Star, book 1)
Kevin Emerson
"Emerson's writing explodes off the page in this irresistible space adventure, filled with startling plot twists, diabolical aliens, and (my favorite!) courageous young heroes faced with an impossible task."
The Serpent's Secret (2018)
(Kiranmala and the Kingdom Beyond, book 1)
Sayantani DasGupta
"Never a dull moment for our ordinary-girl-turned-demon-fighting-princess Kiranmala in this hilarious, action-packed romp. Also, there is snot. It's, like, everywhere. This combination of crucial elements is everything I love in a book. A brilliant beginning to a fresh (and potentially sticky) new series!"
The Strangers (2019)
(Greystone Secrets, book 1)
Margaret Peterson Haddix
"A highly suspenseful, delightfully clever thriller with a tinge of creepiness. Give yourself a few hours to calm down after you finish this gem!"
The Marvellers (2022)
(Marvellerverse, book 1)
Dhonielle Clayton
"A 'Marvellerous' middle-grade debut! Delightful, charming, exceptionally clever, and filled with suspense and humor. Fantasy fans will be entranced by Ella's magical journey."
What Stays Buried (2023)
Suzanne Young
"What Stays Buried is a gripping ghost story full of vivid characters, heartache, wonder, love, and hope. Haunting in all the best ways!"
