Katrina Ryan asked Jennifer Donnelly:

I just wanted to say thank you for writing "A Northern Light". I picked it up in 2007 and read it on my cabin porch during a thunderstorm. Since then I have had to re-read it over and over again because I was so in love with Mattie's story. It is absolutely my favorite book, without a question! I know you've written many wonderful books since then, but would you ever consider diving back into Mattie's world?

Jennifer Donnelly Ooh, a book on the porch of a cabin in a thunderstorm -- sounds perfect!
Hopefully it was in the Adirondacks (or someplace like it)! No plans for a sequel to ANL, but I think if you read my other work (published and not-yet-published), you'll see elements of Mattie's story retold in lots of ways. I see bits of her in Jo, in Andi/Alex, in Serafina ... and, especially, in Belle.
