For Readers Who Crave Heart, Humor, and a Little Bit of Chaos.
I write for anyone who’s ever felt a little awkward, a little overwhelmed, and still managed to laugh about it later. My stories are fast-paced, funny, and emotionally real, perfect for teens, tweens, and the grown-ups who still feel like one.

Let’s Bring Stories to Life
I love connecting with students through school visits and virtual sessions—helping them see themselves in stories and discover their own voice.
Virtual visits will also be available soon, offering a flexible and more accessible option for schools.
What Makes Linda Different
The Linda Rey Reading Experience
Voice That’s Authentic
I write the way real people talk, sometimes awkward, sometimes deep, always honest. My stories never feel fake, forced, or filtered.
Stories With Soul & Sass
Each book blends emotion and humor in a way that hits home, balancing real-life challenges with a wink and a twist.
Second Chances, Always
My characters make mistakes, mess up big, and still find a way forward. Redemption is always on the table.
Clever, Not Cliché
Teens are sharp, and I write like it. My books trust readers to keep up, feel deeply, and laugh at life’s weirdest moments.
Who's Linda, Anyway?

About Linda
Linda Rey writes the kinds of books she wishes someone had handed her in high school: funny, heartfelt stories with a touch of chaos and a whole lot of heart.
She’s passionate about crafting characters who feel real: a little awkward, a little brave, and completely unforgettable. Whether it’s a time-travel twist or a painfully relatable crush, Linda’s stories are about the messy magic of growing up.
When she’s not writing, you can find her haunting indie bookstores, drinking too much tea, or trying to explain plot holes to her dog (who’s very supportive, but not very helpful).
