Laura Brooke Robson
I am the author of Love Is an Algorithm (Park Row/HarperCollins and Text/Penguin Random House) and A Curse for the Homesick (MIRA/HarperCollins and Hodderscape/Hachette). I also wrote the YA novels Girls at the Edge of the World and The Sea Knows My Name (Dial Books for Young Readers/Penguin Random House). I grew up in Bend, Oregon, received a BA in English and Creative Writing from Stanford University, and spent a while in Melbourne, Australia. I’m currently based in New York. You can find my books (and other books I’m fond of) on Bookshop.
I am represented by Andrea Somberg at Harvey Klinger.

Retrograder, my weekly newsletter, explores the precedent for the silly things I care about. I talk about AI, books and culture and sometimes provide bad illustrations. Subscribe for vibes and stick figures.
Book Clubs
If your book club is reading one of my books, fill out this form and I’ll come (virtually) hang out, answer questions about the book, give unsolicited advice, etc.
