Do you think Belle Ami will write more books around Angela and Alex?

Post by SweetMelissaV2131 »

This is the first book I've read by Belle Ami so I am not familiar with her style or other books but I can't help but wonder if she plans on turning this book into the first book of a series. What are your thoughts?

I think with the way she ended this book that it might be possible. I tend to get attached to the characters in books and movies and am always wanting more stories to develop surrounding them.

I just thought I would throw this thought out there and see what everyone else thought about the idea.

I'm actually yet to read the book, so I don't have any thoughts about the author writing a second series. But from everyone's comment about the book, I'll sure prefer a second edition if the story didn't end in a as-a-matter-of-fact way.
Writing is so much fun. So is reading. :techie-studyingbrown:

Maybe. A lot of readers are even wanting this book to have a film adaptation, so there's a great possibility of writing more books as well.

I just read and reviewed the book recently. And there was indeed a little paragraph at the end about Angela and her visions that got me all excited about the prospect of seeing them again in another story! I liked Angela and Alex very much and would be glad to see them in some other story.

Based on the Amazon description, it is the first book in the Out of Time thriller series. Also, there is a scene at the end that seems like it will lead to a new investigation.

She probably will. But I wish she wouldn't. Not unless she does enough research to base the plot lines more solidly on art history. If Angela and Alex can start solving art mysterious with a more academic approach, rather than based on Angela's ridiculous past-life regression/spirit possession episodes, the stories could be a little bit more interesting. If she keeps basing the stories on sex scenes past and present, there will be very little to recommend about the books.

It's listed as Book 1 in a series. I'm looking forward to what comes next ;)

Yes, the author kind of dangled a little blurb in front of the reader which made me think there will be more books involving the main characters.

I did see that post and was surprised at the response of readers wanting it to be made into a movie or TV show. It will be interesting to see if anything comes of that.

I also got excited with that revelation also! I enjoyed their characters as well and would love to see more adventures with them.

Ahhh ok. I totally missed the Amazon description of the book. I just drove right into the book from the link in the email. So I guess my question here in the forum is kind of silly. Oops!

Yes I see what you are saying. I'm wondering how it could be pulled off with the past-life regression with different storylines and mysteries. I do hope the sex scenes lessen up a little. Some of them in this book made me blush LOL

I think there is nothing for us to wonder since, amazon has revealed that this is the 1st book of a series, in the book description. :lol:
