Brenna Blanchard asked Alka Joshi:

Hello Alka! What a wonderfully beautiful story! You might not remember me, but until November of last year I worked at your local library. I really wish I had read The Henna Artist before I moved away, as I would have loved to complement your work in person, but this will have to do. I can't wait to read the sequel. Hope you are doing well! I can't post this without a question mark, so ? :)

Alka Joshi What a lovely message! Our library has been so beautifully remodeled--you're missing out :-). Delighted you'll be reading the THE SECRET KEEPER OF JAIPUR. When you finish, you'll have to let me know what you think of the grown-up Malik and if you think his boarding school education has changed him. Also, do you think Nimmi is a formidable opponent to Lakshmi?
