Jennifer Thorne is an American author of books for adults and young readers who writes from a nineteenth-century Cotswold cottage in the medieval market town of Minchinhampton alongside her husband, two sons, and various other animals.
Born in a small town in Tennessee, Jenn grew up bouncing between her parents' homes in various other states and countries, with books as her constant companions, before returning to New York as a teen to study drama at NYU. Though acting had been her lifelong dream, she found that she was more fulfilled by writing performance vehicles for her friends than acting in them herself. After a move to Los Angeles, she detoured into writing and never looked back. Connect with her online at jenniferthorne.com; Facebook: @JennMarieThorne; Instagram: @jennmariethorne

Jennifer Thorne recommends

The Night That Finds Us All (2025)
John Hornor Jacobs
"A compulsively addictive and deliciously creepy read helmed by the irreverently messy heroine of my dreams, The Night That Finds Us All is a journey well worth taking."

The Captive (2025)
Kit Burgoyne
"What would happen if Rosemary's baby belonged to Patty Hearst? An absolute blast (in more ways than one). I tore through this devilishly delightful, razor-sharp treat and enjoyed every minute."

Senseless (2025)
Ronald Malfi
"In this gripping LA noir, Malfi triangulates a city rife with monsters of every kind to highlight a chilling truth: it's often the subtlest evils that have the most horrific impact."
