Aamna Qureshi is a Pakistani, Muslim American who adores words. She is the award-winning author of YA fantasy novel, The Lady or the Lion. She grew up on Long Island, New York, in a very loud household, surrounded by English (for school), Urdu (for conversation), and Punjabi (for emotion). Much of her childhood was spent being grounded for reading past her bed-time, writing stories in the backs of her notebooks, and being scolded by teachers for passing chapters under the tables. Through her writing, she wishes to inspire a love for the beautiful country and rich culture that informed much of her identity.
Brimful of whimsy and charm, A Witch's Guide to Love and Poison had me hooked until the very last page. I loved the dynamic between Bisma and Xander, and the sisterly relationships were delightful. Highly recommended! * Heather Fawcett, Sunday Times bestselling author of the Emily Wilde series *
