Out of the Loop

Praise for Out of the Loop:“A deliciously entertaining tale.”—Publishers Weekly“Wholly original and satisfying.”—BookPage“A time loop teaches an aspiring but risk-averse semi-detective just what in life is most worth noticing.” —Kirkus Reviews “Like Groundhog Day meets Memento, Katie Siegel brings together time loops, rom coms, and cozy mysteries for something completely original. Out Of the Loop delivers as much charm as it does plot twists, with an endearing cast that will have you rooting for them every day in or out of a time loop.″—Mike Chen, New York Times bestselling author of A Quantum Love Story“A tricky gem! If you’re going to get caught in a time loop and relive variations on the same day, you’re in for a satisfying adventure with Amie Teller, the thoughtful, smart protagonist of Out of the Loop. With fresh characters, deft navigation of a rebounding calendar, and the twists of a murder mystery, Katie Siegel delivers a novel with ‘timeless’ appeal. A fun ride from start to finish.″—Roz Noonan, New York Times bestselling author of That Missing Piece is Killing Me “Katie Siegel is becoming my go-to for page-turning light mystery with wonderfully realistic twenty-something characters. Out of the Loop’s unforgettable protagonist is no longer stuck in time—she’s just stuck in every other way that counts. This is a fresh, funny, incredibly satisfying read.”—Ruthie Knox, New York Times bestselling author of the Prairie Nightingale series“A quirky and inventive time looping mystery that you’ll want to read on repeat for its clever premise, heartwarming characters, and romantic sparkle.″—Jennifer J. Chow, Agatha-nominated author of Tell-Tale Treats“I haven’t had the pleasure of such a clever hook since the last Siegel mystery, and I’m excited to discover Out of the Loop affirms this author’s place at the front of the next generation in the genre. Loved!″—Annie Mare, author of Cosmic Love at the Multiverse Hair Salon“I’m a sucker for time-loop stories and when you throw in a murder? Sold. Katie Siegel delivers that with characters that I want to spend time with.″—Mary Robinette Kowal, author of the Lady Astronaut series

Katie Siegel (she/they) is a former wannabe kid detective who eventually realized that writing mysteries was more fun than trying (and failing) to solve them. When she’s not writing books, she’s either reading, listening to comedy podcasts, or playing TTRPGs with her friends. Offline, she’s in central New Jersey, which is real and exists.
