Kiersten is the author of the Paranormalcy series, which I absolutely loved. Here's a little bit about her, from her website:
More Than You Ever Knew You Wanted to Know About Me
In the tradition of all good fairy-tales, my bio comes in a package of three.
The Official Bio:
Kiersten Transparent is the NYT bestselling author of the Paranormalcy trilogy. She has one tall husband and two small children and lives near the ocean, where her life is perfectly normal. Visit her at www.kierstentransparent.com.
The Start of a Horror Story Bio:
Later, the world would look back in wonder and terror, the portends lining up in a clear course pointing toward what was to come, and they would curse themselves for not seeing the signs sooner. But as far as a young couple expecting their second child was concerned, it was a May like any other in the Utah desert mountains.
The floods should have tipped them off.

Nothing seemed out of the ordinary until two weeks later, when they awoke to the brilliant sunshine of morning and looked at each other in horror, realizing they hadn’t heard the baby the entire night. Rushing to the nursery, choking on fear, they leaned over the side of the crib to find…an angelically sleeping infant.
They thought it was a good sign. They couldn’t have been more wrong...
The Limerick Bio:
There once was a young lass named Kiersten,

Is it pretty easy to see why I love her? She's fun, quirky, and has a way with words. I've loved every book I've read of hers and will continue to pick them up. She's an auto-buy for me!
