“Throughout her work, Zoe Oliveira often explores themes of mental illness, grief, and the key little moments and joys that colour her characters' lives. In her novel, "Love, Emma", Zoe also explored complex family dynamics, her own Portuguese-Canadian heritage, and the following questions: who you are when your world changes, and what is left when everything you knew is gone? ”
Zoe Oliveira is a novelist of fantasy, historical fiction, and young adult romance. When not writing books, she can often be found reading, spending time with loved ones, and working as the Assistant Director of a children's overnight summer camp.
