		<description>I just got finished reading this book, and I really enjoyed it!   So many wonderful facets.  I could relate to Paige more, but would like to have more Josie traits.</description>

		<description>Aya, I&#039;m so looking forward to the discussion. I&#039;ll add some questions once we get going, if that&#039;s okay. I am not sure where everyone is, so I&#039;ll wait until we start seeing some feedback on that first.</description>

		<description>Gwen, you should definitely read it again! And I don&#039;t say that about any &#039;ol book!

I am in the middle of chapter 15. A lot going on and it&#039;s hard to put down.

Gwen, I actually have a lot of questions for YOU, but maybe we will start off with questions for the readers and then grill you. :-)

Recognizing that people are at different stages of reading, I thought I would start with a few basic questions for our readers:

1) Which character do you personally relate to more - Paige or Josie?
2) Have you ever had a friendship similar to the one Paige and Josie share?
3) How did you feel about the Prologue? Did you feel it enhanced your reading of the book to have this information provided at the beginning rather than at the end of the book?
4) The author (IMO) does a really good job at making the characters of Paige and Josie seem authentic and their home lives feel &quot;real&quot;. Did you have any &quot;aha&quot; moments where you said &quot;that could be &lt;em&gt;me&lt;/em&gt;!&quot;

Note, I have no experience with writing reading guides. (In case you couldn&#039;t tell.) I just like reading! Feel free to add your own questions and answers, but let&#039;s not reveal too much about the book&#039;s second half right away for those of us who want to enjoy Paige and Josie&#039;s journey as it enfolds. Thanks for participating!</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I started the book this week but only got a few pages in before life interrupted. I plan on reading quite a bit this weekend.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
