Skye Kilaen writes queer romance, both contemporary and science fiction, that is sometimes about polyamorous relationships.

She is bi/pan, and she currently lives in Austin, Texas because it has so many libraries and breakfast tacos.

Here on Goodreads, she recommends romance (mostly queer), graphic novels (mostly diverse), and occasionally YA, fantasy, & science fiction books.
