Fave's Faves: Jenny Han
This quarantine we’re asking some of our favorite people about some of their favorite things. First up, Jenny Han, author of the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before series.
What is your favorite place to read in your house, and where would you read if you could be anywhere in the world?
My favorite place to read is in bed. If I could read anywhere in the world, I would be reading in a drafty Scottish castle, by a crackling fireplace, with a cozy blanket and a glass of champagne.
What was your first favorite book?
Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great by Judy Blume
What book do you recommend most often?
I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith
Bonus question: what is your quarantine kitchen MVP?
Cilantro. I use it on rice, on soup, Mexican food, Asian food. It tastes so bright and fresh and spring-like that you can almost make believe you're not stuck inside a house.
