I am OVER THE MOON to learn that THIS STAYS BETWEEN US is the @cbcaustralia Shadow Judging Book of the Year for Older Readers!!! The Shadow Judging program gives young readers a voice by inviting groups of students from around Australia to participate in the judging process for the CBCA Awards, and it is the most incredible honour to know that this book is hitting with teen readers - I burst into tears when I heard the news! THANK YOU!!!!! 😱❤️ A huge thank you also to my fabulous agent, @danielle.binks at @jacintadimase, my wonderful publishers, @zozie_walton and @rebeccamcritchie, my brilliant editor, @ladymary_v, and the whole young readers team at @penguinteenaus!! And a massive congratulations to the CBCA Older Readers category winner, Barry Jonsberg for his book Darkest Night, Brightest Star, and to Honour Book recipients, @liliwilkinsonauthor and @jade.timms.writes for their wonderful books, Unhallowed Halls and Golden, and to all the kid lit creators who shared their stories this past year! It is a joy to be making magic with you all ✨ 20 Aug 2026

In what’s proving to be a very exciting week, I’m THRILLED to share the *stunning* Australian cover for my new YA Gothic Horror novel, OUR DARK UNRAVELLING, coming 8 September! 💀🕯️⚡️🖤 If This Stays Between Us was my love letter to ‘90s horror, Our Dark Unravelling is my homage to the Gothic. Think Practical Magic meets Don’t Let the Forest In! Here’s the blurb: When Jude Sinclair is killed in a hunting accident, Lyssa and George feel like their lives have been upended. George is angry – she and Jude have unfinished business – while Lyssa is bereft, unable to accept that he’s gone. In the wake of his death, Lyssa’s behaviour becomes strange. She disappears at night and seems increasingly exhausted and sick. When George questions her, Lyssa confides that she’s spending her nights with Jude, and an escalating series of disturbing events convinces their classmates that Jude has returned. George assumes Lyssa is responsible for the ‘hauntings’ and decides to follow her at night. She is horrified about what she learns and knows that if it continues, it’s sure to cost Lyssa her life. . . A huge, HUGE thank you to @alterlier for creating *the most incredible* cover art - I cannot stop staring at it!!! 🤩 Big thanks also to @dbinks, @rebeccamcritchie, @zozie_walton, @ladymary_v and everyone at @penguinteenaus who has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this book into the world! Our Dark Unravelling is now available for pre-order, and to add on Goodreads. Links in my bio! #ourdarkunravelling #margotmcgovern #loveozya #darkacademiabooks #YAhorror 31 Mar 2026

Thrilled to share that my YA Horror novel, OUR DARK UNRAVELING, will be published by @getunderlined in the US on September 8! 💀🕯️⚡️🍂 This book is my love letter to the Gothic and Dark Academia. Think Practical Magic meets Don’t Let the Forest In. Here’s a peek at the blurb: At the ultra-elite boarding school of Milford, students sacrifice their phones, relationships, and contact with the outside world for the chance at a top-notch education…except scholarship student Lyssa didn’t. She risked a romance with wine-heir Jude Sinclair because who could resist his charms even if they tried? But when Jude dies in a freak accident, Lyssa’s world is upended. She can’t imagine her life without him–and when she starts seeing his ghost on campus, maybe she doesn’t have to. The only person Lyssa confides in is her outcast roommate George who hated Jude, or so Lyssa thought. It appears the past–and present–of the two girls might be more intertwined than they ever imagined, and when Jude continues to exert his control from beyond the grave, a battle for the girls’ futures is on the line. A huge, HUGE thank you to Zoë van Dijk for creating the most incredible, creepy cover art!!! 💗🤩 And to my wonderful US editor, Elizabeth Stranahan, and the brilliant team at Random House Books for Young Readers for bringing this story to readers in the States! Our Dark Unraveling is now available for pre-order (link in bio)! #ourdarkunraveling #margotmcgovern #YAhorror #darkacademiabooks #gothicbooks 02 Apr 2026

Last night was the South Australian Literary Awards! It was an incredible honour to have This Stays Between Us shortlisted for the Young Adult Fiction Award, and wonderful to celebrate alongside so many friends! (And, as usual, I was too excited talking to everyone to remember to take photos 😅) A heartfelt thank you to the judges, and a huge congratulations to all the winners and shortlisted writers, especially @sharonkernot who won the YA category with her brilliant verse novel, Birdy - one of my all time favourite YA books! The highlight of the night was seeing local student writers honoured alongside some of the nation’s most accomplished authors, and also seeing so many of the writers I studied with (decades ago!) honoured for their work. The necessary loss of this year’s Writers’ Week was heavy in the room, but with it was the strength and solidarity of a community that will not tolerate the silencing of Palestinian or other marginalised voices by overreaching festival boards or our state government, and that brought a sense of hope, resilience and learning to carry forward. 05 Nov 2026

OUR AUTHORS ARE HEREEEE!! 💃 come say hi to @staceymcewanbooks @alinabellwrites @margot.mcgovern @trnapper @christyannejones and @braideeottobooks at our lit legends stand today! 🫶🏻 #supanovaadelaide #bookishevents #qbdbooks #authorevent #booksigning 30 Oct 2026

Horror trifft Dark Academia, the best possible way. 🖤 Am 12.05.2027 erscheint die Romance „Our Dark Unravelling“ von @margot.mcgovern im @medienhaus_oetinger. Als die Stipendiatin Lyssa nach den Ferien wieder an der elitären Milford School ankommt, kreisen ihre Gedanken nur um ihre große Liebe Jude. Abgeschieden hinter dichten Wäldern findet sie in ihm den einzigen Halt inmitten der strengen Regeln des Internats. Doch ihre scheinbar märchenhafte Liebe nimmt ein jähes Ende, als Jude plötzlich auf mysteriöse Weise stirbt. Lyssa ist völlig am Boden zerstört, und wenig später passiert etwas, das sie sich nicht erklären kann: Sie beginnt Jude zu sehen. Ihre Mitbewohnerin George, die selbst eine komplizierte Vergangenheit mit Jude hatte, ahnt, dass etwas Dunkles zurückgekehrt ist. Und dass Lyssa in Gefahr schwebt. Jude war schon zu Lebzeiten kontrollierend. Im Tod ist er gefährlicher denn je. Cover: Carolina Rodrgiuez Fuenmayor & Amy Daoud Wagt den Blutschwur und entdeckt, was im Dunkeln lauert. ❤️‍🔥 #oetigner #ourdarkunravelling #margotmcgovern #darkacadmia 14 Oct 2026

Talk about a prologue setting the vibe from the get-go 🫣 Our Dark Unraveling by @margot.mcgovern is out now!! This is the gorgeous US cover (previous post the Aus/NZ) 💕 featuring yours truly as the grief stricken/possessed Lyssa and @sihoee as the reclusive goth/saviour George. This is a love triangle for the ages (read: even beyond death). Gratitude to @aliasmisterkent and the team from @penguinrandomhouse @prhaudio @penguinteenaus for my first PRH title 🎉 and the incredibly talented @reena.dutt for her exquisite direction 🙌🏼 This was a pretty emotional ride friends, poor Lyssa really gets put through the wringer. And I loved every minute of it. * * * Love never dies. That’s the problem. At the ultra-elite boarding school of Milford, students sacrifice their phones, relationships, and contact with the outside world for the chance at a top-notch education . . . except Lyssa didn’t. She risked a romance with Milford’s golden boy Jude Sinclair. But when Jude dies in a freak accident, Lyssa’s world is upended. She can’t imagine her life without him—and when she discovers a way to summon his ghost, maybe she doesn’t have to. The only person Lyssa confides in is her outcast roommate George, who hated Jude . . . or so Lyssa thought. It appears the girls’ past—and present—is more intertwined than she ever knew. And as Jude’s powers from beyond the grave begin to grow, it soon becomes clear that this ghost is determined to be as controlling in death as he was in life. From critically acclaimed author Margot McGovern comes a gripping story about desire, obsession, and the strength it takes to find the way back to yourself. 25 Sep 2026

The incomparable YA scream-queen herself, @margot.mcgovern had done a mini bookstore tour of her hometown Adelaide - hitting up some favourites of the indie bookstores (not all of which are pictured here 🥵 there was a lot!) #OurDarkUnravelling is out now and needs to go on your must-read list! 🖤 When Jude Sinclair is killed in a hunting accident, Lyssa and George feel like their lives have been upended. George is angry – she and Jude have unfinished business – while Lyssa is bereft, unable to accept that he’s gone. In the wake of his death, Lyssa’s behaviour becomes strange. She disappears at night and seems increasingly exhausted and sick. When George questions her, Lyssa confides that she’s spending her nights with Jude, and an escalating series of disturbing events convinces their classmates that Jude has returned. George assumes Lyssa is responsible for the ‘hauntings’ and decides to follow her at night. She is horrified about what she learns and knows that if it continues, it’s sure to cost Lyssa her life. . . 🖤 #MargotMcGovern #Bookstores #Bookshops #DillonsBookshop 20 Sep 2026
