message: Hello! I am the author's assistant and as such it seems I can't make changes. However this is woefully out of date so I hope someone can help. I've posted the additions here. I also need to make pages for the books that are not on here, for example book 1 and 2 of the series have their own pages but not book 3. Any advice on how to get that done would be welcome. Thanks. 
ADD: her Folk of the Air series has debuted at #1 so I would put that in place of or in addition to the first sentence, as it is outdated. 
"She lives in New England with her husband and son" can replace the " In 2008 she was described as residing in Amherst, Massachusetts.[6]" Source can be her Scholastic bio, Goodreads, or any other source from after 2008. https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/authors/holly-black/  https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/25422.Holly_Black
LITERARY CAREER
"A standalone novel, The Coldest Girl in Coldtown, was released by Little, Brown in September 2013.[9]" This was a finalist for an Andre Norton Award (now called a Nebula) https://www.sfadb.com/Andre_Norton_Award_2014
"In 2012, Scholastic acquired a five-book series written by Black and Cassandra Clare to be called Magisterium. Its first volume, The Iron Trial, was published on September 9, 2014.[12]" This whole five book series has now been published. Please update. Please note each book was nominated Goodreads Choice Award Nominee for Middle Grade & Children's  for the year it published
She has published several books since this has been edited: 
The Darkest Part of the Forest in 2015 marked a return to Faerie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Darkest_Part_of_the_Forest (this is also a page that could use some work) It won awards http://www.ala.org/awardsgrants/darkest-part-forest and was nominated for a Mythopoeic Award https://www.sfadb.com/Mythopoeic_Awards_2016
 
In 2017 she published The Cruel Prince, a Locus Award nominee, a Lodestar finalist, and the first in her Folk of the Air series. https://www.sfadb.com/Holly_Black
The sequel The Wicked King debuted at #1 on the New York Times Bestseller list and was also a finalist  for a Lodestar Award in 2020 (link) https://www.nytimes.com/books/best-sellers/2019/01/26/young-adult-hardcover/
With the release of Queen of Nothing in Nov 2019, the complete series debuted at #3
https://www.nytimes.com/books/best-sellers/2019/12/08/series-books/
A companion illustrated novella called How The King of Elfhame Learned To Hate Stories is slated for November 2020 https://www.lbyr.com/titles/holly-black/how-the-king-of-elfhame-learned-to-hate-stories/9780316540889/
(we will have to change this in November, obviously) 
There's a little more but this is the main stuff. I look forward to working with you to improve the site! Thanks! AssistantAtHollyBlack (talk) 15:48, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I've restored the new photo. My guess is that it was taken down because you added it at the same time as a bunch of more questionable edits. Maproom (talk) 15:18, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: I wanted to add a citation to one of citation needed ones you added but messed up the link. I feel like Patrick when Spongebob tries to get him to open a jar of pickles. I think I cancelled the change. I'll just add citations here. SMH at myself.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matilda Frye (talk • contribs) 18:14, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
