Discussion :)

Thanks to our new friend Amy for coming to tonight's meeting! We had an excellent time discussing "The Scent of Rain & Lightning." Here are two questions from LitLovers to ponder as you finish the book:

  • The book revolves around the theme of revenge. What does this novel tell us about the nature of revenge?
  • The theme of forgiveness also plays a large role in the novel. How does this story reveal the challenges of forgiveness? Are the characters clearly in one camp or the other (revenge or forgiveness)? If so, how would you divide them? And which characters bridge these emotions?

We've also picked our next book! Two weeks from tonight, we'll have our first discussion of "Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons." It's available super cheap on Amazon - try buying used if you've never done so before! It has 448 pages, so we'll plan on reading the first 100 (or so - wherever that chapter ends) for the January 18 meeting.

Happy Reading! Hope to see you all in the next couple of weeks :)
