Hi, Mallory J.,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that RESTART has made such a big hit with you and also with your ELA class. I haven't planned a sequel, but I wouldn't rule one out. But I'd have to come up with a really terrific plot for it, because I wouldn't want to ruin a good read with a dull second read! As for a movie, that's up to somebody else. Authors write books, and film companies make movies.

Thanks again! -----Gordon Korman-----
