“I don’t think this ends the story,” says Joanne Harris

I just came across* an interview with Joanne Harris on BookPage in which she says that The Girl with No Shadow may not be the end of Vianne and Anouk’s tale. The Girl with No Shadow (read my review), which was originally published as The Lollipop Shoes in the UK, is the sequel to Chocolat, one of my all-time favourite novels.

*With thanks to Becca at Bookstack for drawing my attention to this interview. Read her review of The Girl with No Shadow.
