Alexandra Sehulster, St. Martin’s Group

Alexandra edits both adult and young adult commercial fiction, and looks for that “can’t-put-it-down” kind of read. She loves thriller/suspense/horror, especially works that are psychological in nature and explore a toxic element of our society through dark, suspenseful, compelling tropes. In addition, she gravitates towards deeply-emotional novels that explore love and romance, the bonds of family, novels that comment on the millennial experience, horror elements that toe the line between normal and paranormal, and retellings of all kinds. As always, bonus points for anything that has a locked room element or is an enemies-to-lovers romance. For all her areas of acquisition, diverse voices and experiences are essential, and novels that uplift women and are intersectional are a must. Alexandra lives in Connecticut with a husband who reads approximately two books a year, and a toddler who skips right to THE END. She loves them very much in spite of this.

Clients: She’s had the pleasure of working with many incredible authors, including New York Times bestselling author Darynda Jones, New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord, award-winning author Alice Blanchard, and celebrated authors Camilla Sten and Jessica Strawser, among others.
