Discussion Questions
Dec 16 Chapters 9-12 Page 217-end 


30. At what point in the book did you suspect that Lydia’s death was a suicide and do you think that had an effect on your reading of the book?

I was suspicious but didn't really know if there was going to be a big twist

31. Some posters have mentioned now that the book became predictable and/or repetitive as it went on. Agree or disagree?

not predictable but yes quite repetitive, a couple of times I found myself thinking that I had already heard this bit before!

32. When Nath ends up under the water, this quote, “he’s already learned how not to drown.” (p 290) is stated. What do you think this means?

He has learned not to drown by living/coping on his own after leaving home (maybe)

33. We had a high suicide rate at the high school where I taught. We could not pin down only one reason that this happened so much at our school. What do you think is the major cause of teen suicide?

I honestly think that teenagers are put under a tremendous amount of pressure now days, with school and getting the grades and not disappointing their parents.

34. Was the ending realistic and did you like it? Why or why not? 

I think that it was an okay ending but I hoped that Nathan and Jack could have been friends, Hannah had seen the attraction from a long way away, and although nothing would have come of it, it would have been nice for them to be able to talk about Lydia together.

I didn't like this book as much as I thought I would, it was just an okay read for me

Yeah just realised that when I looked on the spreadsheet lol

Oh oh one of mine had golf hang on a sec.

Edit
She works in a golf club and drives around serving drinks to people

ooh I've just heard the word Beet in my book !!
Only just started it though so probably won't be finished it till tomorrow

I'm just starting this today

Yes there are Demons galore in that series lol
Sorry I finished it late last night so I've only just put it on the SS, I should have another 2 finished by tomorrow

i'll update the points on the 1st page

my average rating is 4 lol, but i have a six star shelf, so really 4 is just ok / pretty good

Read a book where a character has a surprising and unexpected talent

I think may work, (view spoiler)[she came across the job by accident, and she is really good at "rope play" as she used to work on a farm, so that sort of becomes her forte (hide spoiler)]
