Victoria Lee

Victoria Lee grew up in Durham, North Carolina, where she spent twelve ascetic years as a vegetarian before discovering spicy chicken wings are, in fact, a delicacy. She’s been a state finalist competitive pianist, a hitchhiker, a pizza connoisseur, an EMT, an expat in China and Sweden, and a science doctoral student. She’s also a bit of a snob about fancy whisky.

Victoria writes early in the morning, then spends the rest of the day trying to impress her border collie puppy and make her experiments work.

She lives in Pennsylvania.

Victoria Lee recommends

Lady Macbeth (2024)
Ava Reid
"Reid's prose, as shimmeringly poetic as always, carries a story that will curl around your heart and linger in your bones."

These Deadly Prophecies (2024)
Andrea Tang
"As always, Andrea Tang's characters sing off the page, witty, laser-sharp, and keenly ambitious. These Deadly Prophecies scoops you in and keeps you riveted, turning pages like you can somehow solve the mystery faster just by wanting so badly to know whodunit."

The Forest Demands Its Due (2023)
Kosoko Jackson
"Jackson's compellingly complex dark academia captures the magic that is taking life into one's own hands, of who gets seen as a monster and who is afforded humanity - a riveting exploration of academic privilege that flips the 'chosen one' script on its head. Don't you dare miss it."

Out of the Ashes (2023)
Kara Thomas
"A riveting, unputdownable thriller that made my palms sweat and my heart pound. I devoured this book in a single sleepless night; That Weekend is a brutal examination of what it means to survive."

Delicious Monsters (2023)
Liselle Sambury
"Delicious Monsters grabs you by the throat in the first chapter and refuses to let go until the very end. I was on the edge of my seat for this whole book. Sambury's chillingly beautiful prose will stay with you for ages."

Violet Made of Thorns (2022)
(Violet Made of Thorns, book 1)
Gina Chen
"The first thing I wanted to do when I finished Violet Made of Thorns was read it again. The second thing I wanted to do was write down all the moments that made me laugh, shiver, cry, fling the book across the room only to retrieve it five seconds later and apologize because I just can't put it down. Violet has everything: court intrigue, cruel witches, aloof but hot princes, ambitious girls who will do anything to win. If Gina Chen doesn't write five more of these I will riot."

Hide (2022)
Kiersten White
"This book will live in your head rent-free. When I wasn't reading Hide, I was thinking about it - it's one of those rare books that twists itself into your consciousness. Kiersten White has outdone herself."

It Will End Like This (2022)
Kyra Leigh
"It Will End Like This is heart-wrenching and honest, and I wanted to protect these characters with my life. Leigh is a talent to watch."

All of Us Villains (2021)
(All of Us Villains, book 1)
Amanda Foody and Christine Lynn Herman
"Dark, luscious, and brutally smart, All of Us Villains is a fresh but unforgiving look at the legacy of abusive families and community-sanctioned violence. Foody and Herman have created a thrilling story that is impossible to put down; I stayed up all night to finish this book."

The Passing Playbook (2021)
Isaac Fitzsimons
"This book is a national treasure. I fell in love over and over again: with Spencer and Justice, with Fizsimons' sharp and witty prose, and a romance that made my heart burst."

I Kissed Alice (2020)
Anna Birch
"Rivals-to-lovers, mistaken identity, and slow, slow burn... A loving homage to fandom and queer girls."
