Spring symbolizes new beginnings and fresh starts, and while I don’t want to give away too much now, I think it’s safe to say this is the book many of you have been waiting for. Regardless, Autumn will rely even less on retreading previous scenes than Winter did. Something Like Autumn might end the moment Jace and Ben meet, or it might further flesh out their relationship. While I’ve made good progress on the book, I’m not sure if there will be any revisited scenes like with the previous two books. Surely he wasn’t always perfect, and wisdom always comes at a price, so his story won’t be simple. I love the idea of exploring what Jace’s younger years were like, and discovering how he slowly developed into the lovable and rather saintly person we see in Summer and Winter. This is very exciting, because by the time we meet Jace in Summer, he’s already a very well-adjusted adult.
Like the other two books, it will begin in the teen years. Something Like Autumn will tell Jace’s life story. Now I think it’s time to hear one more tale before moving on. Something Like Winter gave us Tim’s perspective on their history, both together and apart. Something Like Summer told the story of Ben’s love for two very special men. How very convenient then for us then, because what started as a stand-alone book (that I was sure no one would bother reading) is now expanding into a series. Four books is enough for a series, and just happens to be the number of seasons there are. How many books does a series make? Two is a pair, three a trilogy, and four… Hm.
