Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees Brennan was born and raised in Ireland and after living briefly in New York after college, she went onto Surrey, England working on a Creative Writing MA and doing library work she landed up back in Ireland. Growing up in Ireland by the sea during school her teachers tried in vain to get her to speak fluent Irish but Sarah preferred to read the books under her desk in class. Most of these books were Anthony Trollope , Robin McKinley, Diana Wynne Jones and Jane Austen and she still loves these authors till today.
