[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Man it used to burn my toast when my best friend, who has a steeltrap memory, would read only ever read the Cliff notes for our summer reading would then do better than me on the multiple choice tests we'd have to take about the books. And I ALWAYS did the reading. So, in other words, YEAH Kristin!!! I love all of those questions!
eta hope whatever is going on with your mom is easily diagnosed and quickly treated, Suzi!
Yep, Brenda, that's a concern. The truth is that almost any question can be faked with a little ingenuity (as we all know, I suspect). Do you have other suggestions?
Hmm...maybe I could ask them to identify a dynamic character and describe the change they see from the character at the beginning and at the end.
Some of what they read is nonfiction, so I also need to think up some questions that will apply to things like Sedaris and Krakauer.
Mom~ma heading in Suzi's direction.
Kristin, the first thing I thought of is relationships.
* Describe the relationship between two characters in the book and how it changed/developed over the course of the book, maybe?
* Describe a character from the book, would you be friends with him/her if you met?
Mom ~ma for Suzi!mom
You all rock for giving me this feedback, THANK YOU.
Thanks y'all. We are in a Catholic hospital and there are portraits of Jesus all over the waiting room. It is kinda creepy. I can see how it might be comforting for some, but I feel like I'm being watched.
AND for whatever reason I can't get the free wi-fi to work on my home computer, only my work computer, so the stuff I had bookmarked to read and work on are not accessible. Blast.
Bunches of Mom~ma, Suzi. Plus a helping of chill-ma for you.

Don't worry, he's only keeping an eye on Catholics. You're free to commit whatever hospital related sins you can come up with.
I didn't read any of Moby Dick past the first chapter, but I knew Mr. Berryhill's habits so I read the footnotes. I slamdunked all the quizzes and the test. Of course, I also got to read Lord of the Rings as extra credit and had great discussions with him about LotR, so it was just a matter of hating Moby Dick.
