Sheillagh asked Alka Joshi:

Hello Alka, I am so excited to have found your novels. I started with "The Henna Artist" and loved it so much that I read your next novel chronologically, "The Perfumist of Paris". Your writing is magical. It draws the reader into the story and I totally forget where I am when I'm reading your novels. The way you capture the emotions and motivations of your characters is amazing! I could go on and on ?

Korey Daniels asked Alka Joshi:

Will the third book be about Radha? I really do hope so because I would love to learn about her life more after reading the second book.
