DARK DAYS OF WINTER 2012
THE BIGGEST
WITH TAHEREH MAFI
Reading Vacation celebrates HarperCollins’ BIGGEST Dark Days ever today with Tahereh Mafi. She has one of the most fabulous and BIGGEST debuts ever with Shatter Me. Oh my gosh, I love that book! I thought it would be fun to ask Tahereh about some of the other BIGGEST things in her life. Oh yeah! Let’s talk BIGGEST!
Biggest ah ha moment
When I was a sophomore in high school I realized I’d been spelling epitome wrong for years.
Biggest mess ever
I tried to make pumpkin pie, once. That was hilarious.
Biggest guilty pleasure
Hmmm… I don’t know that I actually have a guilty pleasure. I never really feel guilty about doing the things that make me happy. Though I do think I should probably stop buying so many boots. I buy a lot of boots. And books. A lot of books.
Biggest road trip
Across the country! I think in total, I’ve been to about 25 states.
Biggest surprise
Not getting accepted to Hogwarts.
Biggest ooops
Missing my flight from Munich to Barcelona. Big mistake. I got to sleep in the airport with all the homeless people.
Biggest embarrassing moment
We do not speak of it.
Biggest day of your life
Probably the day I was offered a book deal. That one phone call changed the trajectory of my entire life.
Biggest celebrity crush
Peeta Mellark
Biggest prank
I’m… not really a prankster. I’ve tried – and only because I have 4 older brothers and pulling pranks kind of came with the territory – but I just can’t do it. I take absolutely no pleasure in horrifying people just for a laugh.
*OMG I LOVE THIS BOOK*
THAT should get you into the BIGGEST Dark Days mood for sure. Did you know that you can meet the Dark Days authors in person? Leg 1 of Dark Days features Tahereh Mafi, Ellen Schreiber, and Veronica Rossi. Leg 2 of Dark Days features Cynthia Hand, Jodi Meadows, Brodi Ashton and Courtney Allison Moulton.
