When Disney announced Alice Through the Looking Glass as the sequel to Tim Burton’s movie Alice in Wonderland (2010) I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I thought it could not match in any way the brilliance of the first film.

When I recently met #1 bestselling author in 28 countries Sylvia Day at the Penguin Random House offices with one of the best views of London, I wasn’t sure how popular she really was on this side of the Atlantic. Sylvia is also a very humble lady and made me totally at ease so much so that I felt an immediate connection with her. The only novel I ever knew before my interview is the latest…
