A Witch's Guide To Love And Poison

A Witch'S Guide To Love And Poison

Aamna Qureshi is a Pakistani, Muslim American who adores words. She is the award-winning author of YA fantasy novel, The Lady or the Lion. She grew up on Long Island, New York, in a very loud household, surrounded by English (for school), Urdu (for conversation), and Punjabi (for emotion).

Much of her childhood was spent being grounded for reading past her bed-time, writing stories in the backs of her notebooks, and being scolded by teachers for passing chapters under the tables.

Through her writing, she wishes to inspire a love for the beautiful country and rich culture that informed much of her identity.
