Stephenie Meyer. Wouldn’t she have signed a contract that she had to write a sequel to The Host?

That’s strange if she wasn’t.

I mean, usually when an author is a big seller they put them under contract for a series or trilogy. And The Host was made into a movie.

So who knows? Maybe it didn’t sell as well so the sequel was canceled?

Though by now I am over it. I don’t need a sequel. I’d have to reread the first book and I don’t feel compelled to. I wasn’t that big a fan of The Host anyway.

Maybe she didn't write sequel since it could be open ending?

That is entirely possible. If there is an online fan Q&A for the release of Midnight Sun that would be a great question to ask.

I don't think the film did as well as they'd hoped, so sometimes contracts get amended.

Cool! Thanks.

I can see that happening, but really the movie shouldn't effect the book contracts. Because if the book was a best seller that should dictate if there is a sequel, not the movie box office sales.
