Patty Blount grew up quiet and a bit invisible in Queens, NY, but found her voice in books. Today, she writes smart and strong characters willing to fight for what’s right. She’s the award-winning author of edgy, realistic, gut-wrenching contemporary and young adult romance.

Patty is best known for her internet issues novels, SEND, a 2012 Junior Library Guild Fall Pick and TMI, a 2014 Watty winner, and her #MeToo novels, including SOME BOYS, a 2015 C ...more

Things Young Adults Need to Know

Hi! I hear so many young adults complain that school didn’t do a good enough job preparing you for real life. You were taught things like geometry, trigonometry and calculus but you can’t balance a checkbook or file your taxes or understand health insurance.
