Schwab are next on my list.The edge-of-your-seat YA thriller you've been looking for. Raising Hell by Bryony Pearce and Gallant by V.E. Write my next book! Any YA novels on your TBR list? If you can build your own machine / AI, what would you want it to do for you? The fact he shared a name with her brother was by the by – he was very much his own person, even in the early days. However, AI Henry quickly began to outstrip her and came to be his own individual. Again, it felt obvious that a girl who hadn’t been allowed to express her grief properly would bring it out in the thing she was creating. Can you tell us how the readers should understand it?

However, the AI programme, which later turned into Lydia’s perfect boyfriend, is also called Henry. In Every Line of You, the AI programme was built after Lydia’s brother, Henry, passed away. I wanted to keep the focus on why Lydia created an AI rather than how. I wanted it to read like Lydia knew what she was doing without having to explain it too much as that kind of thing can get boring and can be hard to read. I looked at YouTube quite a bit for how to hack and what hacking might look like, but generally I tried to keep the programming/hacking elements of the book relatively light in terms of throwing information at the reader. He thinks it’s great! What was the research process like on the programming bits of the book? How did your husband react when you told him your book’s going to feature AI?
