"Raw, unsettling, and new-bruise tender, The Saw Mouth completely captured me. Plett’s horror debut is a gift to readers looking for the bright heart in the dark." — Rory Power, New York Times bestselling author of Wilder Girls, Burn Our Bodies Down, and K*ll Creatures
Cale Plett is a nonbinary, genderfluid writer who lives on Treaty One Territory in Winnipeg. Their YA novels span everything from high school rock bands to nightmares in the woods to reality TV gone wrong, and their poetry and short fiction can be found in a whole variety of journals. Whatever genre they’re writing, they try to create spaces where queer characters can exist safely within their identities. The Saw Mouth is Cale's second YA novel, to be followed by another standalone YA horror novel published by Delacorte Press, Stranglehold, in fall 2027. Their agent is very kind to support their genre-jumping, since their 2025 debut, Wavelength, is a runaway popstar romance.
