First, I just wanted to say that All The Bright Places ripped my heart into a million pieces- I absolutely LOVED it! My question is: What was your reaction when you found out ATBP made it on to the New York Times Best Sellers list?

Jennifer Niven Thank you so much for reading it! I'm so happy you loved it!! When I found out ATBP made it onto the Times list, I was on tour. I was on my way back to my hotel from a book event, and my fiance was driving as I checked my email. I saw the message from my editor about hitting the list, and I burst into tears. I couldn't speak to tell him what was going on, and so he pulled over on the highway as I made him read the email, just to make sure I wasn't dreaming. :)

Hello, Jennifer! His book changed my life, really! The way you wrote ATBP was so beautiful! I feel that this story came into my life to change my thoughts about life, and I can not thank you for it. I know that the film will be wonderful too. I would say that I imagine Finch as the following actors: Nicholas Hoult (of course), Jeremy Kapone, Dylan Sprayberry and Jakub Gierszal. And you? You have a favorite? Love, Ka.

Hi! "All the Bright Places" changed me, and quickly became my favorite book. I recently started working in a bookshop, and since I started working there you book has constantly been sold out because I just can't stop praising you book! And as the movie's screen writer, will you make the book as beautiful as the book? and if you will ever be in Israel, will you sign my book?
