Should there be a sequel?

[MaryBurris]

I don't think there should be a sequel. If one is written, I don't think that I would read it.

I don't think there should be a sequel about the official gurus, because the book wasn't about them. It was almost the opposite of that - about learning from the surprising, unlikely people you meet everyday. That said, it's pretty clear the author is a self help, motivational guru himself, which makes it an odd kind of book. If anything, I think the chapters in the books could be expanded, as some of them could almost be novels in themselves. The chapter where he's growing up and they're all walking like their fathers, but then he breaks away for example, almost feels like a plot synopsis for a coming of age novel!

Well, I agree, this motivational book needs no sequel but there is room for further improvement

I do not think this is the kind of book that needs or requires a sequel. For me, it was motivational memoir. That being said, I would love to read another book from the enthusiastic and uplifting Rob White.

How can it be improved?

I'm glad you enjoyed this book enough to want to read more by the author!

I think we live in a society today full of series of books so we always feel like a good book should have a sequel. In this case I think that it was self contained and complete in one book.

[Sahani Nimandra]

Actually no! The book is fine the way it is. Sure you can learn from other people and do a better work, but it is not your own rather a developed one. I appreciate this book specially on that the author is in the authors nature. The book display his flaws and how he developed. If we take other's advice in adding up. On my opinion then it its not great, I prefer original work.

[R-g-R]

Sequels should come from those who have been impacted by And Then I Met Margaret. Each person should send in a chapter of a time they were helped by an ordinary guru. It could result in a whole series of books!

[N_R]

No definitely not - I think that with the content it needs to be one of those stand alone books rather than part of a series.

[KitabuKizuri]

What would he say in the sequel that hasn't been said in other motivational books? If there's anything of the sort then, yes! There should be a sequel.

What sells the book is the stories, which like poetry, can have a message deeper than what the author anticipated. It all depends on the reader once the author's intentions are done.

[tonysgirl0805]

No I do not feel there should be another book because the first one was to misleading and was not what the description led us to believe it would be. Plus I am not sure there would be anymore stories to share

[TrishKissane]

I don't think a sequel makes sense. The sequel should be taking the nuggets of wisdom and applying it to our own life story. Looking for our own teachers (past, present & future). I think this book empowers us to do just that.

[Kat Berg]

Considering that this in a memoir, self-help book, I don't think there should be a sequel. First of all, it would be very hard, considering he's explained all of the lessons he was taught by "gurus" from his childhood to adulthood. Secondly, I just don't see fit for a sequel. If he were to write another book like this, I would prefer it to be a stand alone.

This seems to be the consensus of most. I would tend to agree. "Self-help", or motivational books are really better as standalone books. If it came out as a sequel, many would think they had to read the first one before reading the second, and that would prohibit some from reading.

[Roggyrus]

There is no need for a sequel, or rather, the circumstances do not point to it. Rob has fulfilled in himself the culmination of the inspirational motivation that he was talking about. That could be considered a fitting closure. His success in business serves as the proper ending of the book.
