Books are Chic with Alissa Lee

Craving dark academia vibes? A twisty fall thriller? Look no further.

Alissa Lee’s debut, With Friends Like These, has it all. Set at Harvard (Boston girl forever!), the story follows a tight-knit friend group who resurrect a decades-old game… and take it dangerously too far. Secrets, stakes, and yes—maybe even a body or two—nothing is off-limits.

I had the best time chatting with Alissa about her own college years, the real-life friendships that sparked this story, and so much more.
