When it comes to authors, we know they spend a ton of time furiously typing away, creating incredible stories for us. But let’s be real: they’re people too, and the time they don’t spend plugging away on new books can be spent doing pretty much anything – and according to debut YA author Krystal Sutherland’s Instagram, she’s been on some seriously #goals-worthy adventures. As she jet-sets around the world, Krystal makes sure always to share the perfect photo. How she found time to also write the witty and heartfelt Our Chemical Hearts (out 10/4) is pure magic. Read on for 10 reasons to fall in love with Krystal Sutherland and her Instagram!
