About the Author:


My name is Blair Hanson, and if it’s not already obvious, I am not an expert at building websites!

I am much more passionate about writing contemporary young adult fiction. In my (mostly nonexistent) free time, I enjoy falling down Wikipedia wormholes and cuddling with the world’s most adorable cats.

My books include America’s Not-So-Sweetheart (June 17, 2025, Page Street YA) and the forthcoming For the Greatest Good (expected June 30, 2026, Page Street YA).
