So excited to be here and chatting books for the #YABookPrize! Send your questions my way with the hashtag!

House of Hollow was first sparked on a trip to Sri Lanka's ancient capital, Anuradhapura. There were ruins where every part of the structure had fallen away except for the doorframe. I wondered - what would happen if those doors led somewhere unexpected?

I'm still obsessed with the cover. Her eyes really follow you around the room in the most deliciously creepy way #YABookPrize

I had more input on this design than I did for my previous covers. My publishing house invited me to send a mood board of ideas, which included some artwork from Aykut Aydoğdu (aykut salman on Instagram). His work really captured the book so well #YABookPrize

The ruined door that inspired House of Hollow. I arrived at Anuradhapura having no idea what my next project would be and left a few hours later with an idea feverishly swirling in my brain. #YABookPrize

The three sisters in House of Hollow came to me immediately, on that first day. I'm one of three girls and had always wanted to write about the bond between sisters - plus three sisters going missing has a very fairytale feel to it #YABookPrize

I know this is a question for Adiba, but I'm going to chime in as well because tropes are so fun! My next book has elements of enemies to lovers and there's only one bed - tropes I love to read and have always wanted to try! #YABookPrize

I relate the most to Iris because she's the most normal. Your protagonist kind of has to be the most accessible character in order for the reader to connect with the story. My favourite to write was Grey, a woman with terrible, unchecked power #YABookPrize

We're halfway through tonight's Twitter chat with Adiba Jaigirdar (updates) and Krystal Sutherland - keep your questions coming in! #YABookPrize

Who doesn't love a supermodel with extremely questionable morals and a literally monstrous past? #YABookPrize

It felt like coming home! Before writing Chemical Hearts, I wrote 3 (unpublished) manuscripts that were all fantasy or sci-fi. House of Hollow felt like returning to my roots and what I really loved to write. #YABookPrize

I love the first draft - nothing is wrong yet. There are no mistakes in a first draft! It's just you discovering the story. As things get more granular, I enjoy the process less. Copyedits is the least enjoyable - there it feels like everything is wrong!

It means so much! I arrived in the UK three years ago and instantly felt so welcomed by the book community here. It's such an honour. I've read THE YEARBOOK and ACE OF SPADES and AFTERLOVE - I want to read them all! #YABookPrize

Absolutely. Now that I'm here, I'm never leaving! #YABookPrize

My next book comes out in summer next year. A supernatural serial killer thriller set in London! Stay tuned for more details soon... #YABookPrize
