EARLY PRAISE FOR THIS IS HOW A VILLAIN IS MADE!

"A fierce and gripping "Good for her" story. Headlee's characters are mesmerizing and have you holding your breath--and clutching your throat--until the very last page. I loved it." Sonora Taylor, award-winning author of Little Paranoias: Stories and Without Condition

"Amanda Headlee is one of the most insightful writers of her generation. This is How a Villain is Made is direct, brutal, and a masterclass in tension-filled storytelling. This book shows us that though we fear the villain, we should loathe the circumstances that made them."--Somer Canon, author of You're Mine
