(view spoiler)[When The Night Bells Ring is incredible! I do have one question though:
After drinking from the ancient, does Waynoka somehow restore Mads or is Mads dead for good? Waynoka says she doesn't have to leave Mads now and they can be together. Admittedly I want this to be true! Thank you for the amazing read! I will be getting "It Will Just Be Us" next. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Hi, John! I'm so glad you liked the book, and this is a great question. I like to leave things open to interpretation, but unfortunately I do not believe the ancient is capable of bringing back the dead. Waynoka simply hated the idea of leaving Mads's body in the cave when they have been through so much together. Her statement about being together now was also meant to be somewhat ambiguous because she has become close to Lavinia after living vicariously through her journal and has sort of latched onto her in the same way she once latched onto Mads. Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy It Will Just Be Us!! (hide spoiler)]

Thank you so much! With any luck, late 2024, but realistically? Probably not until 2025. But it is written, and I'm hoping to start on a new one soon!
