About this author

Sarvenaz Tash was born in Tehran, Iran and grew up on Long Island, NY. She received her BFA in Film and Television from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts.

She has dabbled in all sorts of writing including screenwriting, copywriting, and professional tweeting. THE MAPMAKER AND THE GHOST is her debut novel.

I love the premise of this book so much: Elliot is a Third Timer in the afterlife. Not only does she have to figure out what she needs to learn to "move on," she also needs to remember the painful details of the life she's left behind.

In a lot of ways, THE DOWNSIDE OF BEING CHARLIE is unlike anything I have ever read. It's Charlie Grisner's senior year and he has just returned from a summer away at fat camp, skinnier and determined to finally make this his year. There's a quirky b...more
