“I was told over and over how wonderful a speaker and storyteller Lisa Unger was during our anniversary event. I personally, loved that she started by talking about her love for libraries and how important independent booksellers still are to the community. Before her scheduled speaking time, Lisa and her husband took time to talk with each of our local authors and with several of our guests attending the event, she was so approachable and welcoming. I would recommend Lisa Unger to any library or organization looking for a keynote.” — Friends of the Lakewood Ranch Library, 2026
“Unger’s latest mystery is an exploration of the patriarchy through the lens of female rage, with some witchy vibes added for extra fun. The combination of revenge, generational trauma, and girl power makes this a fun and twisted tale. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewel and Shari Lapena—and angry women everywhere.” — Booklist

“Unger weaves a complex structure skillfully, shifting among various first-person narrators to feed the reader tasty bits of information—but saving the complex dish for the reveal.

Chef’s kiss.” — Collette Bancroft, Tampa Bay Times
