Amanda Flower / Isabella Alan

Amanda Flower, a USA Today bestselling and Agatha Award-winning mystery author, started her writing career in elementary school when she read a story she wrote to her sixth grade class and had the class in stitches with her description of being stuck on the top of a Ferris wheel. She knew at that moment she’d found her calling of making people laugh with her words. After publishing 25 books in 10 years, Amanda recently made the switch from full-time librarian to full-time writer. Her series include the “Magical Bookshop” and “Living History Museum” series as well as her YA series and, as Isabella Alan, she wrote the “Amish Quilt Shop” mysteries. Book 3 in her “Amish Candy Shop” series, Premeditated Peppermint, was released last year, soon to be followed by the novella "Criminally Cocoa" and the novel Toxic Toffee. Her newest release is Death and Daisies, book 2 in her Magic Garden series set in Scotland. www.amandaflower.com https://www.facebook.com/authoramandaflower
