I'll be really happy if the author did not even consider writing a sequel. I think it ended right and should be left that way.

I really enjoyed reading this book, but I don't think a sequel is necessary. The book had a good ending and I was contented how the author completed the story.

I feel the story is complete as it is. There isn't much room for a sequel. Every character was given a fair amount of screentime and time to develop. All the secrets and revelations happened at proper intervals and the story is very well fleshed out.

While I did love this story, I’m not sure there would be enough for a sequel. That being said, I would read it if there was one and would hope the author would find a way to keep more adventure going!

I agree with the comments saying a sequel isn’t needed. The book ended just fine and sometimes a sequel has a way of ruining things because it might expand on what is not needed.

In my opinion, it doesn't seem like the author intended on writing a sequel since there were no cliffhangers or unanswered plot lines. But anything is possible!

I don't think this book needs a sequel. A sequel would be nice and all but it isn't needed.

I think this book ended perfectly. I would be worried about a sequel ruining the story :lol2:
I was smiling the whole time as I read the epilogue. It was beautiful!

It doesn't need a sequel but can make a separate story about similar characters and their life.

No need for a sequel I think. The book captured all the necessary details for its enjoyment and popularity.

I do not think that this book needs a sequel. The way this book ended did justice to the story where it is not needed for another. I would like to look into other books written by this author.

I don't think a sequel is really advised as the book is written quite well. If there happens to be a sequel, I hope it will be as good as this one.

I think a sequel will not do good in comparison to this. The author tied up all lose ends neatly at the end and a sequel will just be a grasping at straws.
