Hi there, curious reader 👀

You’ve stumbled into the dark, tangled hallways of my mind—lucky you! I’m Adele Liles, writer of twisty young adult thrillers where best friends may be killers, secrets never stay buried, and that seemingly harmless text message? Yeah… it might ruin someone’s life.

This is your backstage pass into my world of suspicious smiles, vanishing girls, mysterious notes, and characters who lie as easily as they breathe. Here’s what you can expect:

• Updates on and sneak peeks of my works-in-progress

• Behind-the-scenes confessions—inspiration, character dirt

• Book recs for fellow lovers of morally gray teens and plot twists you won’t see coming.

• Ramblings about my publishing journey

• Assorted nonsense about what I’m watching on TV

So grab a flashlight, hit that subscribe button, and prepare for stories that will keep you up way past your bedtime.

Thrillfully yours,

Adele Liles

P.S. If you ever think you’ve figured out the ending… you probably haven’t.
