I've posted this question on the bookleaders group, so if you have already
seen it, I apologize.
Does anyone have any questions for the above novel? A fellow book
leader is doing this one and asked me if I could help with questions. I
haven't read it yet, so I have nothing to offer her at this point.
Thanks,
Lisa

Hi, Lisa. I don't know if this will count as an official question or
not....
I read the book and was struck by how suspenseful the plot was. I
*knew* the volcano was going to blow, I *knew* people were going
to get killed, etc. But, I had to read how it was all going to happen.
I wonder if any other readers wonder how can an author write such
a suspenseful book when essentially the reader knows the end.
Not a very elegant question, but might provoke some discussion?
