Courtney Summers (born 1986 in Belleville, Ontario, Canada)[2] is a Canadian writer of young adult fiction. Her most famous known works are Cracked Up to Be (2008), This Is Not a Test (2012), All the Rage (2015), and Sadie (2018).[3]

Career

Her first novel, Cracked Up to Be, was published in December 2008[4] and was the 2009 Cybils Award winner for YA Fiction.[5] Her sophomore novel, Some Girls Are, was published in January 2010,[6] and received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews,[7] Publishers Weekly,[8] and School Library Journal,[9] and was a 2010 Goodreads Choice Awards nominee in the YA Fiction category.[10] Both novels were repackaged as a 2-in-1 edition titled What Goes Around in September 2013.[11]

Her third novel, Fall for Anything, was published in December 2010[12] and received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews[13] and Booklist.[14]

This Is Not a Test was published June 2012[15] and is set during the zombie apocalypse. Prior to its release, all of Summers' novels were contemporary and realistic. This Is Not a Test received a starred review from Publishers Weekly[16] and was optioned for television by Sony.[17] Summers announced that a script was currently in development in April 2015.[18] In January 2015, Summers released an e-novella sequel to This Is Not a Test, Please Remain Calm.[19]

Summers' fifth novel, All the Rage, was her hardcover debut and published in April 2015.[20] It was chosen as the sixth official selection of Tumblr's Reblog Book Club[21] and received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews,[22] Publishers Weekly[23] and School Library Journal.[24] It was also named a Spring 2015 Junior Library Guild Selection.[25]

On April 14, 2015, to mark the release of All the Rage, Summers launched the hashtag campaign #ToTheGirls,[26] encouraging people to send messages of support and positivity to girls across social media. #ToTheGirls trended worldwide on Twitter.[27] Notable press coverage included The Today Show[28] and it was named one of the most important feminist hashtags of 2015 by Mic News.[29]

Her novel Sadie tells the story of a teenager named Sadie Hunter whose little sister Mattie was murdered. Sadie seeks revenge against the man she believes killed Mattie. The book was released on September 4, 2018,[30] and is told from two perspectives: some chapters offering Sadie's point of view and some chapters being styled as transcripts from a podcast called "The Girls" hosted by a man named West McCray. The release of the book was accompanied by the release of a mock true-crime podcast titled The Girls: Find Sadie which is available on Apple Podcasts and Stitcher.[31] Sadie became a New York Times bestseller[32] on September 29, 2018, and has been awarded the 2019 Edgar Award for Best Young Adult literature from the Mystery Writers of America.[33] [34] Sadie also won the 2019 Odyssey Award from the American Library Association[35] and was a Bank Street Children's Book Committee's Best Book of the Year in 2019.[36]

Summers has also contributed short stories to the anthologies Defy the Dark and Violent Ends.[37]
