Fans just joining us on Rachael’s Blog Tour for The Curse of the Purple Delhi Sapphire can look forward to more reveals at her next stop tomorrow, February 5th. For today, we have “Leslie”, Rachael’s favorite character to write from the series.

Leslie was tough to cast because she is modeled after my girlfriend so I already have a specific image of her, but Isla Fisher was a close second. She is petite and curvy and just enough of a quirky free spirit to bring the spontaneous best friend of Sophia to life. — Rachael Stapleton
