Did your opinion change from the first couple of chapters? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113938738 2024-09-11 08:54:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113938738 Which did you believe, the manuscript or Verity’s letter? Why? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113939444 2024-09-11 08:54:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113939444 How is the death of the pedestrian at the beginning of the book linked to the plot? Or is it linked at all? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113939833 2024-09-11 08:55:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113939833 What might have motivated Lowen to accept Jeremy’s offer to finish his wife Verity’s book series? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113940249 2024-09-11 08:55:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113940249 The book alternates between Lowen’s first-person narration and the chapters of Verity’s autobiography. How do you feel about seeing the story from both women’s perspectives? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113940685 2024-09-11 08:55:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113940685 There are a lot of mother-daughter relationships in the book: Verity and her mom, Lowen and her mom, Verity and her twin daughters. How do you think each of those relationships might have influenced the others? And how do they contrast with Verity’s relationship with her son Crew? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113941250 2024-09-11 08:56:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113941250 What do you think of Jeremy? Both Lowen and Verity seem to think very highly of him; they’re each willing to hurt other people to be with him, but does he earn that level of desire and loyalty? Explain your position. https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113941784 2024-09-11 08:56:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113941784 Lowen initially didn’t show Jeremy the manuscript because she didn’t want to upset him, but then she ended up showing it to him after all. Do you agree with that choice? What did you think about Lowen’s decision to keep Verity’s letter a secret? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113942590 2024-09-11 08:57:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113942590 Verity means truth. Do you think Verity tells the truth? Does Lowen? What is the truth in this book? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113943166 2024-09-11 08:57:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113943166 Who do you think is the real villain? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113943432 2024-09-11 08:57:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113943432 Do you think the Vermont setting of the Crawford home has significance? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113943672 2024-09-11 08:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113943672 How were you affected by reading the graphic scenes involving Verity’s pregnancy and the deaths of her children? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944022 2024-09-11 08:58:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944022 Did you find the plot to be believable? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944222 2024-09-11 08:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944222 The ultimate question: was Verity’s writing a fictional manuscript or an autobiography? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944577 2024-09-11 08:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944577 What kind of review would you give this book? https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944843 2024-09-11 08:58:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113944843 https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113953438 2024-09-11 09:04:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113953438 https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113954074 2024-09-11 09:05:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113954074 https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113954610 2024-09-11 09:05:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3113954610 September 10 | World Suicide Prevention Day 2024 ovbc2024q3 https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3116244464 2024-09-12 08:41:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3116244464 September | Suicide Prevention Month ovbc2024q3 https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3116247433 2024-09-12 08:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3116247433 ovbc2024q3 https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3116249126 2024-09-12 08:44:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3116249126 Epilogue kcjeanwilliams https://padlet.com/ovbc2024q3/6h8cq71kmu4feoyn/wish/3117409772 Drop your thoughts on the bonus chapter epilogue below!!!!
