Writer of modern day cautionary tales for
the AI Age
Amara Sage is the critically acclaimed author of two young adult novels. Both are inspired by her own love-hate relationship with the internet. Her writing serves to highlight the impact our online worlds have on our offline lives, and most importantly the relationship we have with ourselves.
Born in 1996, Amara is a last gasp millennial who experienced teenagehood during the boom of social media. Her books explore mental health, body image, and racial identity, filtered through the lens of internet culture. So far, her teenage characters have faced the realities of being an influencer, viral deepfakes, AI alter-egos, and catfishing.
“Sage’s books are thoughtful, sassy, and full of joy.
A gift for a teenage girl.”
— Pandora Sykes
“Shooting straight to the heart of the modern-day
teenage experience, both online and offline.”
— Jersey Festival of Words
“Sage has a keen eye for the realities of contemporary teenage life; Almond's voice is fresh and believable.”
