THIS IS A BRAG POST I'M SORRY
these things are always so weird
It always feels weird to do the brag posts, so I'm just going to throw all of them together into one, ok?
THE LISTENERS is:
One of Barnes & Noble's Best Books of June.
One of The Times' Best Historical Fiction of 2025.
One of Oprah Daily's Best Summer Reads of 2025.
An Indie Next June Selection.
Library Reads' Top Pick for June.
One of Kirkus' 20 Best Books to Read in June.
Library Journal, Booklist, and Kirkus all gave it starred reviews and Publishers Weekly said "This accomplished work should earn Stiefvater plenty of new fans."
The Bookseller called it "A visceral, impressionistic novel that showcases a writer at the height of her powers."
Amazon editors said it was "destined to be seen in readers' hands in planes, trains, and on beaches all summer long."
It's coming out June 3rd in the US and UK (English).
June 3rd in the Netherlands in Dutch.
June 10 in Australia and NZ (English)
June 26 in Spanish.
September 24 in German.
I'll be visiting 8 US cities and 6 in the UK on tour.
Ok, oof, we made it, thanks.
Period. Congratulations, Maggie! You deserve all the hype and I cannot wait to read The Listeners. Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres!
I'm reading The Listeners right now & my daughter keeps trying to steal it. :) We are coordinating a trip to NYC to meet you at TRC graphic novel book signing on 7/30th. So very excited to meet you!
