Spotlight & Character Interview - The Boy Friend
Coming Soon .... a new book ....
from bestselling author, Mika Jolie!
We stopped in to talk to the new stars of said book, Dean & Coriander. Here is what we found out about this fabulous couple coming 04/25/17!!
1. Dean, what was your first
impression of Coriander?
Dean: Feisty. We met over twenty
years ago. (Laughs) She did punch me in the gut.
2. Coriander, what was your
first impression of Dean?
Coriander: A bully. (Laughs) I
thought he was bullying a classmate of mine. The girl turned out to
be his sister. I didn’t know that then. Oh yeah, I punched him.
3. This question is for both
Dean & Coriander, What type of music do you enjoy
listening to?
Coriander: My taste in music is
eclectic. On any given day, you can find me listening to La
Traviata, Nina Simone, an Indie band, Ed Sheeran, and of
course Bruce Springsteen. Hey, I’m a Jersey girl. And I absolutely
love the soundtrack of Grease, the first movie.
Here’s The Boy
Friend Spotify playlist. Check it out:
Spotify Playlist Link:
Dean: I’m a big Dean Martin fan.
Blame my dad. I also enjoy bands like Metallica, Twenty-One Pilots.
(Grins) I do listen to Opera and sing along to a Grease tune. Hey,
Cori enjoys that type of music.
4. Coriander, What is your
biggest fear?
Coriander: That I’ll lose my best
friend, my anchor in the storm of life. My parents have never really
been there. (Pauses, looks at her clear polished fingernails, then
smiles) but Dean always has, since the day we met.
5. Dean do you wear funny
T-shirts too? (Since obviously Coriander
does.) What do you like to wear?
Dean: (Laughs) Because of work I
tend to be in a suit. Although, I prefer to be in jeans and a white
button down. Casual yet sophisticated at the time.
6. Coriander, do you have any
siblings? Will we get to know them in your book?
Coriander: I’m the only child.
Dean has a sister. We will meet her in The Boy Friend.
7. Dean are you a cat or a dog
person?
Dean: Definitely a dog person.
8. This question is for both
Dean & Coriander, What are you most passionate about?
Coriander: My art, humanity, my
friends, and family.
Dean: My work is important to me.
But really what I’m the most passionate about is the woman sitting
next to me.
9. Coriander, are you a
reader? What is your favorite work of fiction?
Coriander: Definitely. Two of my
favorite books are All He Ever Wanted by Anita Shreve and 1984
by George Orwell.
10. Dean, if you could pick anyone
to be your hero, fiction or real, who would it be?
Dean: We have to make an exception
to the rule because I have to go with two. My parents.
