<p>So what took Meyer so many years to release the sequel. " Because I finished it," she told The New York Times.<br />
"The reason it wasn't published earlier was because it was not done, and when I did see the light at the end of the tunnel — when I saw that I was actually going to be able to finish it — I started the publication process right away, because I knew there were people who had been waiting really kindly and patiently, but also anxiously, for quite a while," Meyer said.<br />

The author added that the coronavirus pandemic also played an important part in her decision of releasing the book now.<br />
<br />
"It became quickly obvious that there wasn't a real end in sight with COVID.I am really excited when I have a book to read right now because there's not much else that's exciting. I hoped people would feel the same way."</p>
