In this Fun Friday Book Recommendations, Alix and Kelly ask author Chelsea Abdullah which books had the biggest impact on her life.
[0:29] The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
[1:04] Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
[2:01] She Who Became the Sun by Shelley Parker-Chan
[3:06] A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark

Chelsea Abdullah is the award-winning author of The Sandsea Trilogy, an epic fantasy series that begins with The Stardust Thief. An American-Kuwaiti writer born and raised in Kuwait, she grew up listening to stories about mysterious desert creatures and wily (only sometimes likable) heroes.
Consumed by wanderlust, she has put down roots in various states. After earning her MA in English at Duquesne University, she moved to the East Coast, where she currently lives. When not immersed in her own fictional worlds, she spends her free time playing video games, doodling characters, and hoarding books she doesn’t have the shelf space for.
