Jessica Brody’s standalone novels trace her evolution as a writer. The early books — The Fidelity Files, The Good Girl’s Guide to Bad Men, Love Under Cover — are adult contemporary fiction with romantic comedy elements. Starting with The Karma Club in 2010, she shifted to young adult, producing a string of standalone YA novels through 2021.
The YA standalones cover a wide range of premises: 52 Reasons to Hate My Father, a forced-labor comedy; A Week of Mondays, a time-loop story; The Chaos of Standing Still, set during an airport delay; Better You Than Me, a body-swap tale. Each book uses a high-concept premise to explore teenage emotional territory.
