HI THERE!

I’m Jaclyn.

Headshot of author Jaclyn Westlake smiling

I write novels about funny, flawed women doing their best to find their way in the world. If you've ever felt like you don't quite belong or had a sneaking suspicion that everyone except you has magically figured out the secret to being a Fully Functional Adult™, welcome. My books are just for you*!

*If you're someone who has magically figured out how to be a Fully Functional Adult™, my books are for you, too! Also, would you mind sharing your secret with the rest of us? We’d really appreciate it.

Coming June 4, 2024!

Compelling characters, a page-turning plot, and laugh-out-loud humor…A remarkable debut!
— Stacey Swann, author of GMA Book Club Pick Olympus, Texas

Rosie Benson does NOT have it all together. Like most twenty-somethings, she struggles to figure out life and soon finds herself following the advice of her late great-aunt through a series of revelatory emails about pursuing long-buried dreams rather than society’s idea of perfect in this fun, highly relatable debut. Perfect for fans of Beth O’Leary, Lizzie Damilola Blackburn, and Sophie Kinsella.
