Hello, fellow nerds! Yesterday one of our most 2024 anticipated books, Destroy the Day, released! We shared our interview with the author, Brigid Kemmerer, in the fall, but wanted to give readers another chance to have a listen, as Brigid is so witty and fun to talk to!

Brigid Kemmerer is the New York Times bestselling author of

more than a dozen dark and alluring novels like Defy

the Night, A Curse So Dark and Lonely, and Letters to the Lost. Her stories always feature complex characters facing the challenges of life, both in realistic settings and rich

fantasy worlds, making her a beloved author among young adult readers. A full time writer, Brigid lives in the Baltimore area with her husband, her boys, her dog, and her cats. When she’s not writing or being a mommy, you can usually find her with her hands wrapped around a barbell.
