K J Carr has always been a voracious reader, often bringing home a stack of all genres of books each week from the library as a child. She read romance, science fiction, fantasy, historical romance, self-help—basically if it was in the library, she would read it. Luckily, she was allowed into the adult section when she was around ten, since she was reading eight or more books per week.
After reading about heroines whom she just wanted to slap, she decided she would write about the characters she wanted to hang out with. Those who try to conquer their worlds with wit and snarkiness.
