Frankel is not only a writer but also a baseball fan, a soup maker, a theater lover, a yoga practitioner, a comma expert, and an avid reader. She lives on a steep hill in Seattle, which provides her with a unique vantage point to observe three different bridges from her windows while she is taking breaks between writing.

Frankel shares her life with her husband, their young son, and their border collie, as well as a vast collection of books. Despite her success as an author, Frankel remains humble and approachable, and she continues to inspire and captivate readers with her thought-provoking and engaging novels.
