ABC’S Good Morning America announced today that THE OTHERWHERE POST by Emily J. Taylor (G.P. Putnam’s Sons Books for Young Readers) will be the March 2025 GMA YA Book Club Pick. This stunning standalone fantasy by the New York Times bestselling author of Hotel Magnifique combines dark academia and ancient magic in a deadly mystery that spans worlds about a teenage girl who must risk everything to uncover the truth about her father’s death. THE OTHERWHERE POST goes on sale February 25, 2025, and Taylor will appear on Good Morning America on March 21, 2025 to discuss the book.
Emily Taylor said, “It’s an absolute honor to be a GMA YA Book Club pick! I can’t wait to share this romantic, ink-stained story with the world. I hope it sweeps readers away and brings them a little bit of the same magic I felt while writing it.”
THE OTHERWHERE POST has received four glowing starred reviews and landed on a myriad of Most Anticipated lists. School Library Journal raves “this dark academia fantasy features masterful worldbuilding, a wildly interesting new magic system, and a lovable cast of characters,” and Booklist said “with delicious layers that readers will love unraveling, this fantastical piece will positively whisk you away.” Taylor’s debut novel, Hotel Magnifique, was an instant New York Times bestseller, received two starred reviews, was a Barnes & Noble YA Monthly Pick, and is a popular BookTok title (with more than 4 million views).
About THE OTHERWHERE POST
Seven years ago, Maeve Abenthy lost everything: her world, her father, even her name. Desperate to escape the stain of her father’s crimes, she lives under a fake name, never staying in one place long enough to put down roots.
Then she receives a mysterious letter with four impossible words: Your father was innocent.
To uncover the truth, she poses as an apprentice for the Otherwhere Post, where she’ll be trained in the art of scriptomancy—the dangerous magic that allows couriers to enchant letters and deliver them to other worlds. But looking into her father’s past draws more attention than she’d planned.
Her secretive, infuriatingly handsome mentor knows she’s lying about her identity, and time is running out to convince him to trust her. Worse, she begins to receive threatening letters, warning her to drop her investigation—or else. For Maeve to unravel the mystery of what happened seven years ago, she may have to forfeit her life.
