Anyone? Please respond here.
In "Nineteen Minutes" the characters seem to be too cruel to be realistic. I personally haven't met any one as mean as Matt, Josie's boyfriend, or even Peter's brother who bullied his own sibling. I would probubly be Peter's friend out of all the characters because he was the one picked on the most, exspecially after he went against all the other kids when they were bulling the girl who had her period. It sort of reminded me of that movie "Carrie" when the auther talked about taht moment.
Some discussion topics include:
1. Are the characters in your book realistic and if so how? Can you relate to them or do they remind you of teens you know? Would you be friends with any of the characters in your book? Explain. NO REAL names mentioned in responses.
2. What have you learned from your book or has your opinion about the topic changed from reading this book?
See where the discussion takes you. Stay on topic, but feel free to have an organic discussion about the book. Read the other discussions on GoodReads for ideas about what else to discuss.
