  • Tor Book Blog

    Below is my blog on Tor Books: https://tornightfire.com/sarah-langan-on-imagining-horror-as-the-world-burns/ I’m pretty sure I was born loving horror.

  • Jane Austen, Sexual Predators, and Holiday Weekends

  • Young Adult Novels are Awesome

    MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2009 I’ve been gorging on young adult novels this summer, researching a pet project. I never read YA as a kid, and had no idea how fantastic and thriving a genre it is. Many of the books listed below are darker than mainstream adult fiction, and they’re all a heckofa lot smarter.…
