What to Expect?
Close Reading: We go beyond surface-level plot summary. Expect discussions that examine the author's choices, narrative techniques, and the questions left lingering in the silence between pages.
Thoughtful Dialogue: This isn't a race to share opinions—it's a space for genuine exploration. We listen, we reflect, we build on each other's insights.
Meaningful Connections: Great fiction holds up a mirror to the human experience. Through discussing characters' choices and moral dilemmas, we often discover something about ourselves and each other.

How to get the most out of this event?
Finish the Book: Please attend only if you've completed the book. Spoilers will flow freely, and the richest discussions come from those who've made the full journey.
Ground it in the Text: Bring your interpretations, but anchor them in what's actually on the page. Quote passages. Reference scenes. Let the author's words guide us.
Respect & Openness: Every interpretation matters. Make space for quieter voi
