Kailey Bright is a fantasy YA fiction author and computer scientist, which means she writes code during daylight and writes about fantastical worlds under starlight.

Tired of YA stories where protagonists suddenly get secret, plot-helpful powers, Bright seeks to write powerful and ambitious stories about characters who persevere with and through disadvantages. Her books are meant to positively impact readers who struggle with challenging societal norms and cultivating inner growth.

When she’s not tanning under her computer screen’s glow, Kailey enjoys winning at mediocre bowling and drinking coffee at every opportunity.

Reading an entire book in one day?? I haven't done that since I was 12.

The Push is incredibly fast-paced, well-written, and just plain fascinating. The moment I saw the 2nd point of view, I knew I was in for a treat but I could not predict how this b

Oh my goodness when Paolini means epic, he means epic. I can respect the length of this book because every moment is precious and requires the characters' full attention when resolving. There's little room for error in space and Paolini makes you sit ...more

"This felt like a modern-day twist on Scream. Just like those, I didn't suspect the killer(s) at all. I was blown away. Every new lead felt endless until the very last night...the set up. It was soul crushing."

“I could kill you right now.”
“What would that change?” he asked. “Both of us dead?”
Kailey Bright, Unity

“It’s funny, isn’t it?” she asked, stepping forward and pushing him back. Her voice rang loud and clear for the chained Gifteds around her. “Once you turn us into Unfortunates, you no longer have any power over us.”
Kailey Bright, Unity

“They spent so much time hating each other for their status. Arrogant heiress and arrogant street rat as Leo once emphasized. But they shared arrogance, knowing each other fully without fully knowing each other, and spent their time despising one another together, drawn to interact with pestering, name-calling, teasing.”
Kailey Bright, Unity

“If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.”
Jane Austen, Emma

“Open your eyes and see what you can with them before they close forever.”
Anthony Doerr, All the Light We Cannot See

“I'm in love with you," he said quietly.

"Augustus," I said.

"I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“I have a strange feeling with regard to you. As if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly knotted to a similar string in you. And if you were to leave I'm afraid that cord of communion would snap. And I have a notion that I'd take to bleeding inwardly. As for you, you'd forget me.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

“You do not know how fast you have been running, how hard you have been working, how truly exhausted you are, until somewhat stands behind you and says, “It’s OK, you can fall down now. I’ll catch you.”
Taylor Jenkins Reid, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
