I agree with you. What else is there to be said? I don't see a burning need to hear any more from this author.thelittlelibrary wrote: ↑02 Feb 2018, 08:23 I'm not sure how a sequel would work for this type of book.I don't know if there would be anything else left to say from the author

And yes, professionals are important. But that's not the point of this.

And Then I Met Margaret contains its own particular message, to do a sequel with the same message would, in my opinion, be overdoing it.
I would definitely be interested in another book by this author, just not a sequel to this one.

This is very true. The author could harvest ideas from his readers to write a sequel.Emie Cuevas wrote: ↑02 Jan 2018, 23:28 There is always something new to learn, from anybody about anything. I think a sequel is a good idea, especially if the author listens to what his readers said about the book, and writes it to suit them.

I'd agree with this. The book covers periods from his adolescence into adulthood, from poverty to wealth, so there's little else to explore.AliceofX wrote: ↑02 Jan 2018, 13:05 I don't see how that could come about. The book is almost an autobiography of sorts, and autobiographies don't have sequels. I saw it as a story about how one person's character and opinions were formed throughout his life. It's about growing up, in a sense. I don't see where you could go from there.
He writes in a fairly engaging way, though. Perhaps he could do something with interviewing other people and looking at their stories, rather than his own.
