LILI WILKINSON & ASTRID SCHOLTE BOOK LAUNCH

Expect double the fantasy at this incredible double book launch at Dymocks Melbourne, celebrating two of Melbourne’s favourite YA authors: Lili Wilkinson and Astrid Scholte! Prepare yourselves to dive into dark fairy tales, lush magic systems, and captivating romances.

Here's a sneak peek at the two fabulous new releases:

• Lavender & Hemlock by Lili Wilkinson: Step into the Oubliette and forget your troubles… Housemaid Tansy lives a quiet, amnesiac life in a peaceful seaside cottage, but her world unravels when a wounded Carrion Knight named Merit stumbles through a mysterious door. What follows is an atmospheric, cozy sapphic romantasy with a deliciously dark heart where the threads of reality - and the perfect façade of the cottage - begin to crack.
• Fallen Beauty by Astrid Scholte: The Picture of Dorian Gray meets Rapunzel in this haunting, wintery tale. Imprisoned in a tower her whole life, Thorelea Winyard is forced to paint dead animals—until one miraculously comes back to life. Thrust into a ruthless royal court whose rulers maintain their centuries-long immortality through magical portraits, she strikes a dangerous, secret deal with mortal Prince Kelter to win back her freedom.

Copies of both books will be available for purchase on the night, and you will have the chance to get them signed by the authors!
