Julie Abe has lived in Silicon Valley, spent many humid summers in Japan, and currently basks in the sunshine of Southern California (with never enough books or tea), where she creates stories about magical adventures. Of her debut novel, Eva Evergreen, Semi-Magical Witch, Kirkus said in a starred review, "Bewitching...a must-read for fantasy lovers." It was listed as a Best Middle-Grade Book of the Year by Kirkus, the New York Public Library, Bank Street College of Education, and Book Riot. Julie is also the author of several other novels, including Eva Evergreen and the Cursed Witch; Alliana, Girl of Dragons; and Tessa Miyata Is No Hero.
