Gin Phillips grew up in Montgomery, Al., and has been writing for as long as she can remember. (Shes pretty sure her first story was about a talking dog.) After earning a degree in Political Journalism from Birmingham-Southern College, Gin worked as a freelance magazine writer for nearly a decade. Shes lived in Ireland, Thailand, New York, and Washington, D.C. (She loves traveling almost as much as she loves writing.)

Gin Phillips recommends
Where He Left Me (2025)
Nicole Baart
"A beautifully written, pulse-raising story made up of equal parts love and terror: a reminder that the risk you take when you fall in love with someone is every bit as terrifying as anything that goes bump in the night."
We Had a Hunch (2025)
Tom Ryan
"For anyone who misses the adrenalin of staying up late on a school night huddled under the covers with Nancy Drew or The Hardy Boys, Tom Ryan gives you all the thrills and nostalgia . . . and skips the coziness entirely. These grown-up teen detectives live in the real world, with all its ugliness and fear and regret - no happy ending guaranteed. I do guarantee, though, that you'll keep turning pages way past your bedtime."
The Hidden Life of Aster Kelly (2023)
Katherine A Sherbrooke
"This is a story about the long tendrils of the past, and a look at all the shapes that love can take - soul mates, friends, mothers and daughters, and an artist's passion for creating. What a ride!"
