Misa Sugiura

Misa Sugiura is the award-winning author of three contemporary young adult novels. Her first novel, It’s Not Like It’s A Secret, won the Asian Pacific American Librarians’ Association’s Award for Young Adult Literature; her highly acclaimed second novel, This Time Will Be Different, earned accolades from institutions including the National Council for the Social Studies, the New York Public Library, and the Chicago Public Library; her latest book, Love & Other Natural Disasters has been praised by the American Library Association as “hilariously awkward” and “honestly poignant.” The first installment of her highly anticipated middle-grade fantasy series, Momo Arashima and the Sword of the Wind, will be published in early 2023. Visit her at on Twitter and Instagram @misallaneous1, or at her website, misasugiura.com.
