Our bookclub is reading The Kind Worth Killing next month but we can't find any discussion questions for readers. Do you know where we could find some? Also any suggestions for ideas or activities related to the book/plot to make it a fun meeting? Thanks!
Peter Swanson
Here are some questions that were used in the Richard and Judy Book Club in the UK:
• Discuss the character of Lily and her initial motivations in striking up a conversation with Ted?
• Everyone in this novel seems to have a secret - discuss the idea that you can never really know another person.
• This novel has been described as ‘hard to put down’. How does Peter Swanson create the feeling of suspense in the novel?
• Do you think that this novel proves that everyone is capable of doing bad things?
Personally, I think a fun activity would be to have a signature drink at the book club meeting. Maybe a Hendricks martini! That would be my choice. Hope it goes well. Cheers, Peter

I just wanted to say thanks for your masterpieces! I have struggled to find books that suit my dark psychological thriller tastes, but yours have been AMAZING! I am a library associate and every time a patron checks out books that are similar to my tastes I ALWAYS recommend The Kind Worth Killing and they always come back loving it! Who has been your favorite character you've written? Can't wait for next year's book!

Hi Peter, I loved your book Her Every Fear and gave it a good review, but I wondered if you had considered ending it differently? I asked that in my review but am still learning my way around this website, so ofcourse you prob don't read all the reviews or want to. Thank you.
