Discussion Suggestions

A couple of notes to help facilitate our discussion.

1. Please do not open up your own separate discussion strands within the book group; this undermines cohesive discussion.

2. Begin your posts, when appropriate, by referring to those whose posts you are responding to.

3. For each chapter that will be a couple of questions to get the conversation going. Please chime in with your own comments and questions.

(Thanks to the English Companion Ning for some of these ideas!)
