The Magnificent North Just Got Even More Exciting — Stephanie Garber Has New Updates on The Mirror of Infinite Endings 🪞💘
THANH VY VUONG💘 Hello, lovely reader
Stephanie Garber has been on Instagram this week — and wherever Stephanie Garber goes on Instagram, the Once Upon a Broken Heart fandom follows with their whole hearts, their apple-related feelings, and their absolute inability to remain calm.
This week's updates on The Mirror of Infinite Endings have the Jacks Cult in a full and glorious spiral. And honestly? Same. Let's talk about it. 🪞
📣 What Garber Shared This Week
Straight from Stephanie herself on Instagram — and this news deserves to be celebrated with every ounce of enthusiasm the Magnificent North inspires:
The release date has moved one week earlier. The Mirror of Infinite Endings will now arrive on September 22,2026 — one week ahead of the previously announced September 29, 2026 date. Which means Jacks and Evangeline are coming to us sooner than we thought. This is not a drill.

The novella will be published in different countries . For an international fandom that has been waiting for this story across continents and time zones — the confirmation that The Mirror of Infinite Endings will reach readers in many countries is a beautiful, full-hearted acknowledgment of just how global this love for Garber's world truly is.
Stephanie Garber's books have already been translated into more than thirty languages — and the confirmation that this novella specifically will launch simultaneously in Brazil, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy and Poland signals something meaningful: the Once Upon a Broken Heart universe has a truly worldwide audience, and this story is being given to all of them at once.

🪞 Everything We Already Know and Love About This Book
For anyone just joining the fandom, here is the glorious world you're stepping into.
The Mirror of Infinite Endings returns to the Magnificent North — the dreamlike, fairy-tale-dangerous world of the Once Upon a Broken Heart series — for a brand new story centred on Jacks and Evangeline Fox. Jacks and Evangeline have finally found their happily ever after. Everything in the Hollow is wonderful and perfect. Nothing is going to go wrong. No one is keeping a secret... except for maybe one. But don't worry — it's not going to rewrite reality or alter history or change the ending of their story. Definitely not.
(We love how this blurb says reassuring things in the least reassuring way possible. That is Stephanie Garber at her finest.)
The novella features cameos from fan-favourite characters and twenty full-page illustrations by Lotusbubble — whose art has already become inseparable from the visual identity of this world. At 224+ pages, it is significantly more substantial than a typical novella, and feels less like an addition to the story and more like a full return to a world readers never quite left.
💌 The Story Behind the Story
What makes this announcement even more special is knowing why it exists. Garber has shared that she received requests for this novella from readers almost every single day for over a year before she finally said yes.
She didn't plan to come back. The trilogy felt complete. But the love readers held for Jacks and Evangeline was so consistent, so persistent, and so genuine that it changed her mind — and she wrote this novella as a gift to those readers.
The Mirror of Infinite Endings exists because a fandom loved a story enough to ask for more, every day, for a year. That is one of the most beautiful things in the reading world right now.
