Gabrielle Zevin

Zevin is a writer I admire for refusing to stay in one lane. From young-adult meditations on memory and the afterlife to a sweeping novel about friendship and video-game design, she writes with a warmth that never tips into sentimentality, which is harder than it looks. Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is the book that won me over completely, capturing the loneliness and joy of making things together better than almost anything I've read. The Harvard pedigree is there, but what I value is how unpretentious and humane her storytelling stays. She makes ambition feel tender.
