We've got both good and bad news about the possibility of a second series of the adapted novel by Sally Rooney, so get ready to either love us or hate us.
Normal People was taken to the screen after Irish author Sally Rooney's enormous success with the novel released in 2018, which was unfortunately a stand alone book with no others currently released continuing the story of Connell and Marianne's love.
However, although it's unlikely there won't be a sequel to the series, unless she gives the go-ahead for a TV written series or writes a sequel, Sally has written another novel – her hugely successful debut, Conversations With Friends, (2017), which features entirely different characters and plot.
Hey, what with it being a lockdown and everything, we can seriously recommend reading the good old fashioned book version of each, they're amazing!
