Such an interesting conversation about this book. We all liked it, but we also agreed that the discussion questions were difficult to answer. Should have had them in mind before reading. The writing is beautiful. We actually read several passages aloud at the meeting. We seemed to also be in agreement on our favorite story in the book. We think the author is amazing. I would definitely read more of her stories. She is very clever and is not afraid to approach subjects that might make one uncomfortable. Great book for discussion.
