There was a nice announcement today.
Kyoani announced that a special book collecting all four volumes of the Violet Evergarden light novels, as well as two short stories (The Tailor and the Auto-Memories Doll and The Queen and the Auto-Memories Doll) and a new chapter by Akatsuki Kana, will come to us in winter 2025. More information will be available this summer.

There is just the book itself, plus a premium edition that adds a booklet of illustrations and a three-layer acrylic plate in a box that looks like a trolley luggage. The book will also include two new chapters: Laura and the Auto-Memories Doll (about Violet who just became an auto-memories doll, and a girl named Laura), and Flowers and the Auto-Memories Doll (a sequel to the new chapter about Laura).
The anniversary book itself is B5 size (263mm x 189mm), with the cover in color but the pages in black and white. The booklet of illustrations that comes with the premium edition is also B5 size and will have 56 pages, all color.
