*SPOILER ALERT*
Please be aware that this thread is a spoiler-welcome zone. If you haven't finished the book and don't want to be spoiled, please wait to read this thread.

Our first book in 2020 was "The Diviners" by Libba Bray!

Since this is the first time that we have discussed a book on Goodreads, here is how it will work. Under this main post I will be posting the discussion questions as comments. If you want to answer that question, reply to the comment.

You do not have to answer all or any of the questions. They are simply a guided discussion.

If there is something else you want to bring up and discuss, feel free to make your own comment.

Interaction is highly encouraged. Feel free to respond to what other's are saying and create bigger conversations.

Did you finish the book? If not are you planning to finish it?

How did you feel about the time period it takes place in? Do you normally read or enjoy books set in the past?

What did you think about the twenties slang used through out the books?

How did you feel about the pacing of this book? Too slow, too fast, just right?

Do you think it benefited the story to take place in the 1920's or do you think it should have been set in more of a modern time period?

What did you think about our main character, Evie? Did you like her, love her, loathe her?

In this book we come across many different supernatural abilities. Which of them would you rather have? And if you could have ANY supernatural ability (whether it appeared in this book or not) what would it be?

Why did you think Evie was so against being sent back home to Ohio?

Let's talk romance! My favorite part of any book! How did you feel about it? Was it necessary to have a romance? Did you enjoy it? And, more importantly, are you #TeamJericho or #TeamSam?

Did this book creep anyone out? And if so, what was the creepiest part?

How did you feel about that ending? Do you feel fulfilled. Do you think it should have ended differently?

This question is more about me collecting data for future books. How long did it take you to read this book? Also, what is your max page count for future books? Remember, we normally read 1 book a month.

Are you going to continue with the series?

How many stars are you going to give this book? (out of 5)

*The average answer from the group both here on Goodreads and at the in-person meeting will determine what star rating I give it on this account.*

FUN FACTS:
The final book in this series comes out in February!

The rights to turn this book into a TV Show or film was bought in 2012. No idea what they are waiting for, but we may have something we can watch in the future!
