Join local author L.T. Thompson here at "THE BANK" at The Little Book to celebrate the release of their YA Debut - "Devils Like Us". Releases on Tuesday, June 3, 2025. "Our Flag Means Death meets The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue in this YA historical fantasy about three queer and trans teens facing down a secret magical society. Cas has a rule: Don't tell anyone. Not about the nagging gender discomfort, and certainly not about the prophetic visions of untimely deaths. Cas broke this rule only once, and in response, Remy DeWindt ended their friendship forever
Remy has spent the last eight years researching the secret society that kidnapped her father and the dark magic they practice. She's determined to take them down and bring her father home-no matter what her former friend Cas thinks happened to him.
Finn is desperately in love with Remy, but Remy would never give in to a desire the church deems a sin. But Finn isn't worried about sin. She already committed the worst sin of all when she made a sinister bargain for a deadly price-a price that will soon have to be paid. When Cas's latest vision sets the three of them on a collision course, they embark on a journey that will force them to confront hidden secrets and deadly magic-and also offer them the chance to find out who they truly are."
L.T. Thompson writes stories about queer kids and teens discovering themselves and having adventures. They’re a proud library worker and the author of two books for middle-grade readers, The Best Liars in Riverview and The House That Whispers (Little, Brown Books for Young Readers), and one for young adults, Devils Like Us (Bloomsbury). They grew up in Kentucky, spent a decade in Boston, and now live in Iowa with their wife and cat. When they’re not writing, they enjoy picking up new hobbies and letting their interests cycle like the tides.
