Caitlin Barasch

I primarily read literary fiction (with the occasional thriller or romance!) and short story collections.

Formerly: bookseller. Currently: creative writing instructor for adults & teens.

I enjoy traveling, bouldering, horseback riding, eating, wandering NYC, hiking, doting on my orange tabby cat... the list goes on.

As a reader and as a writer, I'm bored of the "likable" vs "unlikeable" binary re: female characters. I'm drawn to complicated, flawed, unhinged characters (aka human beings...) who make mistakes. And I'm always open to book recs along these lines!

Jo Piazza

I write books about strong women defying the odds. I love an adventure and a book that both sweeps you away and starts a conversation with your friends.

Book club visits are one of my favorite things to do and I zoomed into hundreds of them for my Good Morning America Book Club pick You Were Always Mine. I'm a former travel editor who has gotten to visit 47 countries and I met my husband Nick in the Galapagos islands on a reporting trip. After living in NYC and San Francisco I have settled into Philadelphia (the greatest city on Earth) to raise my three feral children.)

Gillian McAllister

As you find me, it's autumn 2025 and my latest novel is Famous Last Words, a thriller with a marriage at its centre. It asks the question: what would you do if your husband is caught up in a siege in central London? Only, the police tell you he isn't one of the hostages: he is the gunman... I hope you like the answer!

Upcoming in spring 2026 is Caller Unknown, a thriller about a woman whose teenage daughter is kidnapped, and she decides to pay the ransom, meet the kidnappers direct, and not tell the police.

As to me, otherwise, I am the author of these novels:

Everything But The Truth (2017)

Anything You Do Say (2018) called The Choice in America

No Further Questions (2018) called The Good Sister in America

The Evidence Against You (2019)
