Considering the fact that the sequel would consists of the same characters and the same writing style, I probably wouldn't read it. I do enjoy non-fiction books like this a lot, but the overall depressing mood wasn't very pleasing to me
I do not think I would read the sequel to this book. Unless the author plans to make a sequel when she starts writing the first book, sequels are not very good. As Mary Peyton said, I also would not read this because this book was depressing.
I would definitely read a sequel to Speak. The ending was happy, but it left a lot for the reader to figure out on her own. Instead of tying up all of the loose ends, the author made it so that readers have to assume that Melinda made friends and became a happy girl again. This would be the perfect book for a sequel even though the sequel would probably not be as good as Speak.
I wouldn't read a sequel to this book. The sequel would be extremely boring because this girl would probably still be scarred from her experiences. I would guess that she would simply complain about what happened to therapists and then go into a depression because she would think no one could fully relate. Then she'd come into context with her rapist (the climax) and they would have a struggle and she would ultimately come out on top. SO pretty much like this book, same ole same ole.
I would probably read a sequel to this book because the ending is a little unbelieveable. Why did Melinda finally find her voice? Will she still be tormented by Andy? Will she make more friends or persue her love of art? Yea, I have a lot of questions and I'd think a novel will hopefully answer them.

ReplyDeleteI don't think she could write a sequel, but if there was one, I probably wouldn't read it. I liked the book, but not enough to read a sequel.
