Talk:High School Story, Book 3/@comment-34138917-20180121182023/@comment-3452092-20180121192026

Pretty sure we have confirmation on at least High School Story, Book 4, because I seem to recall something about getting back Principal Hughs will have an affect in future books. That little "s" tells me there are probably multiple books to come.

Personally I think High School Story, Book 2 lowered the quality of the series as at times it physically pained me to read it. The beginning was good. The end was good. I'm just not sure how much it's worth rereading the middle to get from the beginning to the end. Maybe now that I know how it ends out, but maybe not. The discord was horrible.

Pixelberry has a lot of practice with the world of High School Story and a lot of potential if they choose to use it, so of all the series, I think High School Story is the one that could go on for a long time and not get old. I'm not saying it will, but I think they are capable of it if they so choose.

As for The Sophomore, there is still potential there and the last couple chapters have been an improvement over a lot that has come before. For me personally, The Freshman, Book 3 was the low point in the series and they have yet to sink back down that low, again. Thankfully.

Of course you have to keep in mind, I prefer series and often find that a single title book is so much lost potential. Also, my favorite book series, is 40 books long. . . with spin-offs about the same main characters in the longer spin-off and the shortest one that only lasted a single book since the author, sadly, died before any more could be completed. It's also mysteries. And there is almost no romance in it at all (despite the fact that there are at least four guys interested in the main character at different points in the series, it's not a major plot point in hardly any of the books).
