Adrienne Thurman writes romance and commercial fiction where gloriously unlikable women get the happily ever afters — or revenge plots — of their dreams. As a BIPOC creator, she writes stories with a diverse cast of characters that makes her readers feel seen. Don’t Tell Me How It Ends is her debut novel.

Adrienne Thurman has always had a BIG love of language and word games, but it wasn’t until she was all grown up that she started playing with words in new ways — snapping them into picture book texts like a puzzle. She feels so honored to tell stories to incredible and diverse kids…and their adults too! When Adrienne’s not writing, you can find her being inspired and delighted by her powerhouse of a daughter, whose favorite time for wash day is always, “tomorrow.” NO WAY, WASH DAY is Adrienne’s debut picture book.
