I just finished reading The Girl He Used To Know, and I love it so much! It made me cry so hard and I love your writing! I was wondering if could there be any possible sequel? I know that the book was published almost 5 years but I just need more of Annika and Jonathan.

(view spoiler)[Hello!
Thank you for your question and thank you for loving the story. When I initially wrote The Girl He Used to Know, I included a double epilogue (Jonathan's chapter was first followed by Annika's). The epilogue was set ten years in the future. My agent didn't want to include the epilogue when we went out on submission with the manuscript. I believe the thought process was that the book would not appeal to as many markets with the epilogue; to be honest, I never did quite understand why it would be a hindrance, and I've mourned the exclusion ever since. Readers have been asking for an epilogue or sequel since the book came out. I totally understand why! I love love love epilogues.
I don't have enough story for a sequel, but I'm hoping to get the double epilogue posted somewhere -- maybe on my website or maybe as bonus content in an upcoming book. I promise I'll do my best to make it happen if at all possible.
Thank you so much for reaching out!
Warmly,
