About
Nina Moreno once had her dream job of shelving books at the library. She now writes books that are somewhere between Southern fiction and a telenovela, awarding her the Junior Library Guild selection, Indie Next Pick, and SIBA Okra Pick. A University of Florida graduate, she lives with her family by a swamp outside Orlando where she enjoys listening to carefully curated playlists, hunting through thrift stores, and drinking too much Cuban coffee. She is the author of Don’t Date Rosa Santos (Disney, 2019), Our Way Back to Always (Little Brown YR, 2021), and the Maggie Diaz series (Scholastic, 2022/2023), and has participated in a number of anthologies including Reclaim the Stars, a YA anthology of genre-blending fiction
