Do you see yourself in Laurel? (And oh btw, pls let the movie happen and if its not to much to ask for, we'd love to hear Amy Winehouse's Rehab on the soundtrack) :)

Hi Claudine!
Yes, in some ways I do. I definitely feel really connected to Laurel. I drew upon some of my own memories while writing the story and some of Laurel's struggles are similar to things that I myself have struggled with. However, the more I worked on the story, the more Laurel became her own character who is quite separate from me as an author.
Glad to know you love "Rehab"--me too!!

Hi Ava! When I read your book I thought one of the main themes in it was grief. Having lost my mom recently, I identified a lot with some feelings and questions Laurel experiences. What is your take on this subject? Do you think in order to get past grief you have to go through a dark period in your life or death can also be understood with light? Can't wait to read more books from you!
