}}Anna-Marie McLemore is a Mexican-American author of young adult fiction magical realism.[1]

Personal life

McLemore is a queer Latina,[2] which she cites as one of the reasons why she writes inclusive, queer, Latinx casts.[3][4] Her husband is transgender.[5] McLemore describes her work as inspired by the fairytales and stories she grew up with and her own background,[6] which is why many of her novels feature magical-realist themes, queer characters, and Spanish and French language.[7][8] She cites Laura Esquivel's Like Water for Chocolate as one of the reasons she started writing[9] and names Carla Trujillo, Malinda Lo, Isabel Allende, and Federico García Lorca as some of her influences.[10][11]

Career

McLemore was named a Lambda Literary Emerging Writer Fellow in 2011.[12]

Her debut young adult novel, The Weight of Feathers, was published in 2015 by Thomas Dunne Books. It deals with themes of discrimination and marginalization[13] in a magical-realist story about black magic,[14] and includes a generational feud between Mexican-American and Romani rival families.[15] Her debut was chosen as a William C. Morris Debut Award Finalist in 2016[16] and received a starred review from Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books.[17] It also was chosen for YALSA's 2016 Top Ten Best Fiction for Young Adults list.[18]

Her second novel, When the Moon Was Ours, a magical-realist fairytale about a transgender Pakistani-American boy and a cisgender queer Latina falling in love,[19] was published in 2016 by Thomas Dunne Books. It won the James Tiptree Jr. Award[20] in 2016 and the Stonewall Honor Award[21] in 2017. It was also named a Best Book of the Year by Kirkus Reviews[22] and Booklist.[23] When the Moon Was Ours received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews,[24] School Library Journal,[25] and Booklist.[23]

McLemore's third novel, Wild Beauty, about a family of cursed women and magical gardens, was published in 2017 by Feiwel and Friends[26]. It again received three starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews,[27] School Library Journal,[28] and Booklist,[29] and was also named a Best Book of the Year by Kirkus Reviews[30] and Booklist.[29] Wild Beauty was nominated for a Northern California Book Award in 2018.[31]

Her fourth novel, Blanca & Roja, is a Latinx retelling of Swan Lake[32] and Snow White, about two sisters who fall in love with a boy who can turn into a bear and a non-binary teen who can turn into a cygnet.[33] It was published by Feiwel and Friends in 2018. Blanca & Roja received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews,[34] School Library Journal,[35] and Booklist[36] as well. School Library Journal named Blanca & Roja a best book of 2018.[37]

Her fifth novel, Meteor, is about two girls attempting to change their town's future while they participate in a talent competition. It's her first co-written novel, together with author Tehlor Kay Mejia, and will be published by HarperCollins in 2020.[38]

Her novels have been translated into 3 languages: Turkish, Italian, and Spanish.

Aside from novels, she has also written several short stories and non-fiction essays for anthologies that were published with Ambush Books, Harlequin Teen, Candlewick, Simon Pulse, Soho Teen, and Algonquin Young Readers.
