Were you satisfied with the events leading up to the ending (the police officer shooting Darby, Darby running after Ashley, Jaybird shooting Ashley)? How about the ending itself? Once it was dawn in the book, action started to happen quickly.Do you think she is a realistic portrayal of a 9 year old girl? If not, how do you think she differs from a typical child of that age? Jaybird is the 9 year old who is held captive and worth a huge ransom.Who do you think would be good actors/actresses for the main roles? Also, what parts of the book do you think they will need to change for the movie version? The rights to this book have been sold to 20th Century Fox to make a movie.Are there any passages in the book-ideas, descriptions, or dialogue-that you found interesting or revealing? What lines, if any, made you stop and think?.
Describe his personality and his motivations. Ashley is an interesting type of villain.Name an instance in which the heroine Darby makes a mistake throughout the novel.What were some benefits about using a rest stop as the setting for a crime thriller?.Which part of the book did you find most gruesome? Did you find it more physically gruesome or mentally?.Pretend you are Darby…After noticing the young child in the back of the van, would you get involved? Or would you have an alternate course of action?.
I can’t wait to hear your own thoughts, whether good or bad. However, some were disappointed in the parts that were gruesome, unbelievable, and frustrating. Overall, it appears that people liked that it was a quick read, and they were interested to see what happened. I’ve noticed that this book has received a variety of reviews. I know that not everyone has been able to read this book, (and we changed the selection at one point) but hopefully you can still attend and enjoy the discussion and brunch food.
