About Libby Lives

Everyone in town knows Libby Turner as the sweet waitress at The Rustic Spoon, but they don't know about the bodies buried in her past. After surviving a childhood of brutal abuse, Libby finally has a shot at a normal life—including an unexpected romance with a protective local cop who makes her feel truly safe for the first time. Then the notes start appearing. Someone is watching her. Someone knows her darkest secrets. And they're determined to make her pay for what she's done. Raw, unflinching, and emotionally charged, Libby Lives explores the blurred lines between victim and perpetrator, justice and revenge. "Unflinching doesn't even begin to describe Libby Lives. This book just ripped out my eyelids. A brutal sonnet of retribution where every wound weeps off the pages"—Clay McLeod Chapman, author of WAKE UP AND OPEN YOUR EYES and GHOST EATERS "An impressive debut that's as much of a blood-soaked revenge fantasy as it is a meditation on the morality of justified violence."—Nick Roberts, author of MEAN SPIRITED and THE EXORCIST'S HOUSE "Ali Toothman's Libby Lives is a fierce debut, brutal, chaotic, and unrelenting. I Spit On Your Grave meets I Know What You Did Last Summer gives this revenge tale a twist of mystery. You'll tear through the pages of this one."—Gage Greenwood, author of BUNKER DOGS "Toothman makes it clear she isn't afraid to explore dark places in her writing. Libby Lives is a gripping tale of revenge, love, and overcoming a harrowing past. Highly recommended!"—John Durgin, author of THE CURSED AMONG US "Ali Toothman delivers a punch in her debut book. A revenge story that is easily read in one sitting. Brutal, unfiltered, and raw."—Mike Salt, author of YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE "A twisty and intense tale of feminine rage and brutal exacted revenge. Libby Lives is a satisfying testament to 'FAFO'. Toothman has secured a foothold in the genre with this exhilarating debut."—Megan Stockton, author of LOVELY, DARK, AND DEEP
