“I’m someone drawn to big questions that don’t really have answers,” explains author Nikki Erlick. “Why is life so random? How much power do I have over my fate?” In her bestselling debut novel, The Measure, Erlick gives her characters some control — at age 22, everyone gets a string that measures how many years they have left to live, but they don’t have to look. The plot unwinds based on those decisions and the ones Erlick made in her own life, which she candidly shares in her December 2022 chat with The Girlfriend Book Club.
