Let's make this birthday one to remember.

48 years old (Born on January 04, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Sarah Mlynowski! May your day be filled with more laughs than a chapter of "Monkey Business," and fewer identity crises than the heroine in "Me vs. Me." Your witty storytelling has given us countless smiles, relatable mishaps, and characters we secretly suspect are based on our own awkward moments.

From navigating life's hilarious fishbowls to capturing young adult hearts everywhere—your recent successes continue to inspire readers worldwide. Here's hoping this year brings you even greater adventures (and perhaps fewer plot twists involving spilled coffee or misplaced manuscripts).

Cheers to another fabulous trip around the sun—you literary legend!
