I’m Corinne Duyvis, award-winning author of books for young readers.

My YA novels to date — Otherbound (2014), On the Edge of Gone (2016), and The Art of Saving the World (2020) — were all published by Amulet Books/ABRAMS. They’ve earned critical acclaim, including receiving many starred reviews, appearing on best-of-the-year-lists, and winning a number of awards.

I’m also the author of Guardians of the Galaxy: Collect Them All (2017), an original prose novel set in the Marvel universe, and several short stories, including Rebuilding Ruins (2024), which is set in the Overwatch universe.
