Hello and welcome back to another Top Ten Tuesday! Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme originally created by The Broke and The Bookish, and is now hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.
Today’s topic is: Standalone Books That Need a Sequel
Because I don’t read that many standalone novels that have open endings, I’m going to do a mix of series and standalone novels that I think needed another book to properly wrap things up.
Let’s get started.
Images are from Goodreads | Links lead to their respective Goodreads pages (Two Can Keep a Secret leads to my review)
*The Fixer duology by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. There are two books in this series and I am absolutely devastated that there isn’t going to be a third. I need more Asher and Tess (and the ending of the second book is NOT enough), but apparently, I’m not going to get anymore any time soon.
*Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus. That ending left some questions that really need answers. I really hope there’s a second book that will clarify everything and make it all understandable.
*Sammy Keyes and the Kiss Goodbye by Wendelin Van Draanen. I love Sammy and I can never have enough of her and Marissa’s antics. I know there are 18 books in the series, but I still want more! (And am I the only one that didn’t like the last book?)
*Will Robie Series by David Baldacci. There are five books in the series, but I still want more. The ending of book five was pretty nice and I would like to know what happened to the characters after that.
A Top Ten Tuesday can have four answers, right?
Apparently, I don’t read that many books that have open endings or that need a sequel. What books made it on to your TTT’s? And do you agree with me about the ending of any of these? Let’s chat in the comments below! (Be sure to link to your TTT’s so that I can check them out!)
I really want to get and read The Fixer and Two Can Keep A Secret…☺️

I haven’t read The Fixer yet, it’s on my TBR but it is a little offputting knowing that the series will never be complete.

It is complete (kind of) but I just wanted more. There’s a lot of room to expand on the ending of the second book and I’ve come to adore the characters, so I really really want more lol. I do hope you still enjoy it 🙂
