Anybody else participating in Overdrive's Big Library Read? I was actually looking at this one a while back and thought it looked interesting. I started it last night and am finding it fascinating so far. (Photo from Overdrive's FB page.) #overdrive #BigLibraryRead @OverDrive

Tamra I downloaded the audio. 7y
CrowCAH I didn‘t realize this was a bi-annual thing. You should lead Litsy in this book‘s discussion, like I did back in October. Check out the hashtag #BLR2017 for this book 7y
Jess7 @Jules7 @thisbookends @Dana1084 @Tamra are all reading this. All of you have posted about it so I‘m tagging you so you can discuss! 🤗🤗 7y

SassenachTheBookWizard I really wanted to like this. Sadly I. dNFed it but I'm glad I tried a different book than I normally read 7y
JoeStalksBeck Did you like this book? I thought I‘d was more on a juvenile level than YA. It just didn‘t have the punch I thought it would 7y
Redjewel_7734 I went back & forth on this one. There are things I liked & appreciated in the story, but I‘m mot sure if they quite make up for its many flaws. 7y
JacqMac I‘m not finished yet. It‘s not horrible, but it kind of lost my interest. I just have other books that I‘d rather be reading. 7y

Day 14: question...

10. Hawthorn creates fictions about many people. Why do you think she does this? If you were a student with Hawthorn, what fictions might she create about your life?

Last question, opine away!

It was part of Overdrives Big Library Read. Young Adult. I finished it but it was barely ok. Didn't like the silliness of Hawtorne, the main character.

Day 13: question...

9. Hawthorn is profoundly impacted when the truth about Lizzie‘s disappearance is discovered. Why do you think she reacted the way she did?

Just a couple more days to get the book for free from your Library‘s OverDrive Center; make sure to get your copy!

Pamwurtzler I think Hawthorn was so wrapped up in the scenario that she created that she was devastated when the truth was discovered. 7y
CrowCAH @Pamwurtzler I guess, the lies finally caught up with her? 7y
Pamwurtzler @CrowCAH That and the fantasy bubble popped, I think. 7y
CrowCAH @Pamwurtzler oh, I see. 7y

Day 12: question...

8. Does Hawthorn genuinely believe in her far fetched theory about Lizzie‘s disappearance? If so, what does this say about her? If not, why do you think she aggressively pursues the theory? What does this fantasy offer to Hawthorn?

Thoughts?

InnerSavvy No she doesn't she is trying to escape reality rather than face it. 7y
CrowCAH @InnerSavvy so she creates lies to form a new reality? 7y

Day 11: question...

7. Discuss Enzo‘s painting of Hawthorn. What‘s the difference between seeing Hawthorn for who she is versus creating a painting of how she sees the world? How is one better than the other?

We‘re over half way through Big Library Read, are you over halfway through this book?
