Although Olivia Peelen recently graduated from Falmouth High School in Maine, she draws most of her inspiration from her childhood in Queens, New York. Growing up on the same street as a funeral home, Olivia always wondered if all the bodies made it to the cemetery, or if some of their bones were left in the big blue dumpster that she walked past every day. About the Bones is her first novel.
