Eva Lesko Natiello

Eva Lesko Natiello is a native New Yorker, who, by transplanting to suburban New Jersey, unwittingly conceived her first novel. THE MEMORY BOX, a New York Times and USA Today bestseller, is a psychological thriller about a woman who Googles herself and discovers the shocking details of a past she doesn’t remember—set in a fictional New Jersey suburb where things appear to be quite ordinary. \n \nMisconceptions provide particular fascination for her—when people appear to be normal by context—but upon closer inspection are actually deviant or at the very least a little screwy. Incongruity carries over into her second novel, MISTAKEN, awaiting publication. More on that soon! \n\nAnother theme that weaves its wave through Eva's fiction is the subject of control. How people who are obsessed with control will do kooky things in order to attain it. And by kooky, she means psycho. \n\nOn a personal note, she loves the creative process: painting, gardening or re-purposing (though many D.I.Y. projects have been fraught with disaster, it doesn’t seem to stop her). She enjoys the beach, traveling, cooking with her family, a really good belly laugh and hanging out with friends. She makes up songs as a way to dialogue with her kids who are no longer little but still find it infrequently entertaining. Eva is a book marketing consultant, thought leader and speaker who you'll find sharing book marketing strategies, self-publishing best practices and thoughtful insights on the ups and downs of a writer's life at book festivals and writer's conferences. \n\nEva feels very blessed by the outpouring of interest for the THE MEMORY BOX from fans around the globe, as it continues to find new readers every single day. She’s incredibly grateful to her readers for their enthusiasm—when they take time to write reviews, get in touch or spread the word.
