Hey guys! Welcome to my stop on the
blog tour for Find You in the Dark by A.Meredith Walters hosted by The
Readiacs. While I had a few issues here and there with the book, it was
undoutedly an edge and painfully heart-breaking read. Today, I have an
interview with possibly my favourite character from the book, Daniel :) While
Daniel isn't the love interest (ha! The love interest is *usually* my favourite
character, but there're always exceptions!), he's one of the sweetest and most
caring and protective without being-in-your-face-kind-of-protective male
characters I've had the pleasure to meet :) Hope you enjoy the interview!
Hi Daniel.
So glad to have you on the blog today! How are you?
I'm pretty great! I'm glad I could be here!
I really
admire how you're always so fiercely protective of Rachel and Maggie. Could you
tell us how you three became best friends?
Well, our moms were best friends in high school so
we grew up together. They were the two girls who I knew I could count on
no matter what. Some people may think it's weird for a guy to call two
girls his best friends, but they are. We always have each others' backs.
It's awesome.
Awwwww,
that's so sweet! What's the best memory you have of you three?
Our families used to go on vacations together when
we were young. I remember going to the Outerbanks when we were probably
around five or six. Rachel and Maggie had spent all morning making this
huge sand castle. Then high tide came in and destroyed it. Maggie
wanted to build another one, Rachel was devastated. So I helped them
build this kick ass sand castle for the rest of the day. I knew then,
even as a young kid, that I would do just about anything to make those two
girls smile. And that when they were happy, I was happy.
If you
could go back in time and change one thing, what would it be and why?
Dating Kylie Good. I wasted a lot of time chasing
after a girl who really could have cared less about me. I would have
realized that the perfect girl had been staring me in the face for years.
I would have definitely acted on my feelings for Rachel a lot sooner.
Rachel must
be the luckiest girl on earth :)
Describe
your perfect date!
Cooking her dinner and then going for hike in the woods.
I love to cook and I love the outdoors. So my perfect date would
encompass those two things.
Fill in the blanks:
I am flirty and outgoing
Love is your best friend
My ideal girl gets me without trying
Highschool is a blip in the grand scheme of your life. What
seems so important in high school, won't seem so life or death a year from now.
I regret being so insensitive toward Rachel. Also I would
be more proactive in trying to help Maggie with Clay.She was so secretive about
him, I wish I had dug a bit deeper to see what was going on...maybe I could
have helped earlier.
Brussel
sprouts is the worst YUCK!
I cannot survive without my X-box. I'm a game junkie.
It's horrible,I know, but I can't help it.
In 10 years I want to be a sports journalist...and I
hope starting a life with Rachel.

Thank you so much for joining us today Daniel!

Maggie Young had the market on normal. Normal friends, normal parents, normal grades...normal life.
Until him.
Clayton Reed was running from his past and an army of personal demons that threatened to take him down. He never thought he had a chance at happiness.
Until her.
Maggie thought their love could overcome anything. Clay thought she was all he needed to fix his messy life.
That together, they could face the world.

Hi Daniel! *waves*
ReplyDeleteHe loves to cook? WIN! Given I absolutely hate it, I think we would work out well. Except for the fact that he loves Rachel. Minor detail ;-)
The love interest is almost always my favorite character as well Shirley, but it's fun sometimes to find a book where that's not the case! Looking forward to spending more time with Daniel!
Ya this post is very nice.
ReplyDeleteCook for a date
Oh Daniel sounds divine, I would love it for a guy to cook me dinner! I can totally see why Danie would be your favourite character from Find You in Dark, with some of his smooth answers he could probably be mine too! Thanks for sharing this wonderful post with us Shirley! :)
ReplyDeleteDaniel sounds like a wonderful character! I wouldn't mind having his as my best friend. :)
