A New Chapter at Midnight​

​​

Book Three: Midnights On the Square 

Available July 13, 2026

​​​​

​

It’s the end of something good and the beginning of something even better in the enchanting third installment of the Midnights On the Square series.​​​​​

​

For three years, Aurelia, the owner of a London bookshop, has guarded an extraordinary secret. Each night, when the clock strikes midnight, her store comes alive with characters straight from the pages of novels by Austen, Brontë, and Dickens. Even with her fiancé, Oliver, living upstairs, Aurelia has managed to sneak to her shop each night without raising a single suspicion.

 

But when her 14-year-old niece arrives for a summer holiday, Aurelia may have underestimated a teenage girl’s uncanny ability to see through her secrets and stumble into a few mysteries of her own. And when Oliver learns about the life Aurelia’s been hiding, she must find a way to rescue her wedding while protecting the legacy of her family’s bookshop.

 

Filled with all the wit and charm readers have come to expect, A New Chapter at Midnight blends classic literature, sweet romance, and a touch of magic into a bewitching read.

Praise for A New Chapter at Midnight

​

“Andersen follows Booked at Midnight with this magically laced story of family legacy, honesty, and the risk that comes with letting people you love fully into your life. . .  Andersen delivers exactly what the premise promises: a warm, bookish, sweetly romantic fantasy.”  BookLife Reviews

​​​

​“In this third installment of Andersen’s Midnights on the Square series, the focus shifts away from the concept of Aurelia writing new endings for the books’ characters to introduce a new generation—and a future shop owner . . .  This approach keeps the series from becoming formulaic while retaining the lively engagement with classic literature that’s become its hallmark.” —Kirkus Reviews

​​​

 

Praise for Booked at Midnight

book two in the Midnights On the Square series

​

Andersen sweeps readers into a delicious conceit in the follow up to The Midnight Book Club. . .  The shop itself functions as a sanctuary, a space where the boundaries between reader and story dissolve. . . continuing the series’ exploration of literature’s power to unite, reshape, and transform.  Readers who love books about books—and find comfort in the idea that stories have lives beyond their covers—will find much to savor here.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​”  BookLife Reviews

​

“The supporting characters have a chance to shine . . . [b]ut the heart of the project continues to be Aurelia’s love of classic literature and the characters who make the stories come to life.  A satisfying sequel that deepens the characters and storylines introduced in the first installment.”  Kirkus Reviews

Praise for The Midnight Book Club,

book one in the Midnights On the Square series

​​

“…[A] charming tale of a writer finding inspiration and a chance at true love via the characters in her favorite classic novels… [A]n appealing blend of fantasy and romance… A delightful love letter to great literature. Kirkus Reviews

​

“In a love letter to readers and dreamers, debut author Andersen crafts a richly layered world in which beloved characters come to life … From the warmth of Marmee from Little Women to the wisdom of Sergeant Cuff from The Moonstone, each character she meets in her literary explorations enriches Aurelia’s world … [R]eaders will find themselves eagerly turning the page, breathless for more in this new series.” BookLife Reviews

​​​

​“Utterly charming… The Midnight Book Club will appeal to anyone who has ever lost themselves in the pages of a classic novel. Andersen brings famous literary characters to life—literally—and the results are delightful.” —Elizabeth Everett, author of The Lady Sparks a Flame

​

The Midnight Book Club charmed me from the very beginning—a magical bookshop where you can meet all your favorite characters, a grieving woman who starts opening her heart to people both fictional and real, a buttoned-up man whos more than he seems! It was all so cozy and delightful that I found myself wanting the story to go on forever. E.W. Andersen is a new author to watch!” —Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of Never Been Shipped

​

​“Characters from classic stories nurture a grieving woman toward new love in the sweet, fantastical romance... [E]motive and uplifting...” —Foreword Clarion Review​
