Lauren
Lauren asked Blake Crouch:

Hi Blake, I wanted to tell you how much I loved Dark Matter! It sits on my Goodreads "best" shelf with very few others. I appreciate that you don't feel like you have to tie your stories up in a nice, neat little bow. I think this restraint is essential in making an author truly great. Do you ever fight the urge to wrap things up too perfectly, or are you naturally inclined to create cliff hanger?

Quinn Jensen
Quinn Jensen asked Blake Crouch:

I’ve only recently found Dark Matter and Recursion, and absolutely loved them both. The main characters in both seem to have very similar personality traits. In your writing process, how much of your own personality do you think you tie into each character?

Denis Coupal
Denis Coupal asked Blake Crouch:

What film director would you most want to adapt one of your books to the screen?
