ABOUT JACKIE
JACKIE KHALILIEH is a Palestinian Canadian writer with a penchant for Samoyeds, to-do lists and staying up way too late. She is passionate about positive representation within her writing.
Something More, her debut YA novel, was shortlisted for the Ruth & Sylvia Schwartz Award, the Amy Mathers Teen Book Award, as well as the Snow Willow Award, and was selected for several Best of 2023 lists, including the New York Public Library and Audible Books Canada among others.
She resides just outside Toronto, Canada, with her husband and two daughters, continuing to complain nightly about having to cook dinner.
