Alex Light grew up reading too many books and listening to too many Taylor Swift songs. Now she writes books that make people laugh (and sometimes cry). Alex began writing as a teen. She shared dozens of love stories online, which have now been read over 150 million times. Shockingly, she graduated with a BA in English literature, giving her the perfect excuse to read even more books when she wasn’t busy writing her own. Alex lives in Toronto, Canada, with her three furry friends. She’s an avid donut eater, sometimes baker, and lover of the frozen winter months.

"A compelling look at complicated grief." — Kirkus Reviews"Light has done it again—this is a great YA contemporary romance. The writing is heartbreakingly beautiful. Readers will immediately be drawn into this interestingly painful journey as the characters try to find their way out of the darkness, alone and together." — School Library Journal (starred review)"Set in the endearingly comedic world of Monte’s Magic Castle, It’s Not Me, It’s You thoughtfully captures how it feels to be directionless and unsure at the outset of adulthood. Jackie’s voice is funny and engaging, and I loved watching her progress from enemies to allies to much, much more with Wilson. Alex Light has gifted us a sweet coming-of-age romance about one girl’s journey to chart her own course and figure out who she is—and what happens when we stop focusing on everyone else’s stories to start writing our own." — Ellen O'Clover, author of Seven Percent of Ro DevereuxPraise for Alex Light: “A syrupy ode to what it feels like to slowly fall for someone for the first time.” — Kirkus Reviews"A sweet and fun debut that neatly riffs on the unrealistic expectations romance novels can set for real life." — Booklist"Such a delight! Alex Light's sharp sense of humor shines on every page. But it's the wonderful Rom under the Com that will keep readers rooting for Jackie and Wilson. Simply terrific!" — Jenn Bennett, author of Alex, Approximately"While a great enemies-to-lovers romance endures, the core of the novel is the bonds of sisterhood between Jackie and her siblings.... Jackie’s unsure adult path is also refreshing, offering to readers that you don’t necessarily need life after high school sorted. A great romance, but an even better family story." — Booklist"Witty banter, written by Light (Meet Me in the Middle), endears in this sweet romance with underlying themes of self-discovery and enduring friendship." — Publishers Weekly
