Character Interview - Amari

Amari is the lead character in Sian B. Claven's first YA horror novel called Ensnared. Here we get to know all about her.

Tell us a little about your life growing up.

It’s always just been myself and my parents. They’ve always wanted me to excel so a lot of my time was spent focusing on schoolwork. As I grew older though, and they pushed me to decide what I wanted to do with my life, I got less inclined to do anything. I have never liked making choices but guaranteed once I have made up my mind I stick by it.

Name five things you love to do when you have the time.

Reading is the absolute first.

I love a long hot shower or bath to relax.

I like picnics and walks in natural places where the air is clean.

I love playing with animals and visiting rescues

I like to bake when I’m not busy.

Name five things you hate having to do.

I hate being forced to make a decision. Cleaning is not my strong point, especially dishes, I find them gross to touch especially if things float in the water.

I hate small talk and forced conversation.

Have never liked disappointing my parents or fighting with them.

I hate running at the best of times.

Who is your best friend? What about them do you love most?

Where we used to live my best friend was a girl called Tatiana. She was like a sister to me. We did everything together and I loved how adventurous she was. Here on the farm I don’t know anyone except the creepy girl who sits on the wall banging her feet against it.

What is your favourite food and why?

Without a doubt it has to be spaghetti bolognaise but the next day after it’s been made with a fried egg on top. It’s something some school friends introduced me to and it’s just such a weird and wonderful combination of flavours.

Do you believe in the Supernatural?

I’m starting to. Let’s just say there are things happening at the farm that have me… questioning everything I’ve ever been told.

What’s the strangest thing that has happened to you?

So far, I keep seeing this woman out the corner of my eye but when I look closely she’s gone. Also, I swear I hear whispers all the time in the woods surrounding our farm.
