“You might also have heard me in interviews talk about how hard this book has been since that first draft,” the author wrote in her newsletter. “This book is different than anything I’ve written before but also feels like a really natural extension of what I’ve been doing the last few years.”

“There is, of course, a love story and a vacation and complicated family dynamic and all the things I’ve always found myself drawn toward, but there’s also something else, and I’m both overjoyed and terrified to be able to share it more about it with you so soon, Including which T. Swift song it most closely correlates to since I know that some of you will ask. (Another hint: It’s on Folklore .)”

The book will be released in the spring of 2025, and the plot remains a mystery.
