Sometimes Rainbow Rowell writes about adults (Attachments and Landline).
Sometimes she writes about teenagers (Eleanor & Park, Fangirl and Carry On).
But she always writes about people who talk a lot. And people who feel like they're screwing up. And people who fall in love.

She lives in Nebraska with her husband and two sons.
