Please post all your spoilery thoughts for chapters 11-20 here!

Discussion questions: to follow Oct. 20.


Käthe | 47 comments I was so into this book that I passed this checkpoint without realizing it!!!! I’m in chapter 25, and a big part of me doesn’t want to go on. I have stopped reading because I’m not ready for what I’m positive is coming.
It’s been building all throughout 11-20.
I still really like the flashbacks.
I kinda feel like Michael is like Lennie from Of Mice and Men, he doesn’t know his own strength as well as being naive, and low IQ.


Deborah (dg_reads) I can see that comparison, Käthe!

I just finished chapter 20 and was definitely feeling more engaged with the book as I got further into it. This definitely meets all definitions of dark and disturbing so far and I suspect there is much more to come!

I have done a lot of the book on audio and I've struggled a bit with the audio with keeping track of the jumps back and forth in time, but I think I've done better with it the further I get into the book.
