Melissa Kantor
Author of Invisible I
So, I was trying to think of a way to introduce myself that wasn’t, like, painfully boring, and I came up with an acrostic—remember those poems you wrote back in first grade?
- Mad about Veronica Mars, Sex and the City, summer storms, Chanel Number 19
- Eats waaay too much take out (especially Thai)
- Listens to the dorkiest music from the 80’s (check out my playlist for proof)
- Is writing a new book called The
- Secrets of the Darlings
- Says “anything’s possible” but can’t stop believing (deep down) that
- Amanda’s alive.
Yours Truly,
Melissa Kantor
