Leeann’s comments from the Let's Get Psyched About Reading group.

What brings value to your life? What is most meaningful to you?

If Michael did manage to put Sarah back together inside the Virtnet, would that person still be the old Sarah? Or would it just be someone with Sarah's memories, thoughts, and characteristics?

What do you think of John and Dave's dynamic in this book? What do we learn about the two from John's reaction to Dave's 'death'?

What's your favorite John moment?

Favorite Amy moment? Dave moment?

What is reality and how do we know if we are living in it?

Could we ever know for sure?

Would you take the sauce?

If you could live in the VirtNet for a day, what kind of things would you do? Would you change your avatars appearance in the VirtNet or stay looking like your real life self?

What do you think of the Epilogue?

Answer the questions from the podcast!

What was your favorite book/ movie in the series?

Favorite Scenes?

Favorite Characters?

Is Snape good or bad?

What about James Potter?

If you could have anything from the Harry Potter World what would you take and what would you do with it?

What do you think making this story into a graphic novel did for the story? Do you think the format is relevant on its impact?

What do you think "The Great Perhaps" means?

"Teenagers think they are invincible." Do you agree? Why or why not?

Jealousy: a growing theme as the main characters start to catch feelings for each other. Why does Ron get involved with Lavender? Why does Harry hold back his growing feelings for Ginny? Why do you think it's taking so long for Ron and Hermione to admit their feelings?

In the newest Episode of the Get Psyched podcast I went over my favorite books from 2019. What were yours? Do you have any books you're excited to read this year or a reading goal? If not, how do you choose what books you read?

Harry is so moody in this book, why do you think his mood has changed at this point? Why wasn’t he like this when he first went to Hogwarts? What changes might have contributed to this?

Hermione’s obsession with 'house elves rights' is overlooked and taken lightly by many of the characters, they all seem to be adamant on leaving things as they are because they believe house elves are happiest this way.

The elves themselves say they don't want to be taken from their work or get paid.

What do you think is the significance of the different views these characters have?

For those of you who’ve read this book and seen the movie, how do you think the differences/ speed of the story affect the viewers experience? Do you think any moments that were omitted from the movie change the experience or not? Why?

Which house are you in? How do you feel about the description/ how your house is portrayed in the series?

If you have seen the movies how do you think they compare to the books?

Tell me about your favorite moments from book 1 & 2!

1. Why do you think Charlie wants to remain anonymous?

2. What do you think about Susan's relationship with her boyfriend? When Charlie tells Bill, did you think Bill would call his parents? Do you think that was the right thing to do? What do you think of her parent's reaction?

Questions: 1. Did Ove change over the course of the book — or did your opinion of him change based on what you learned about his past?

2. What are Ove’s issues with modernization?

3. How do you rate/ recommend this read?
