Discussion Guidelines

Everybody should feel free to post and ask questions–it’s what makes book clubs fun! But please do not post until you are familiar with Spoiler Courtesy!

Spoiler Courtesy

Please follow these rules to avoid inadvertent ネタバレ. If you’re unsure whether something should have a spoiler tag, err on the side of using one.

  1. Any potential spoiler for the current week’s reading need only be covered by a spoiler tag. Predictions and conjecture made by somebody who has not read ahead still falls into this category.
  2. Any potential spoilers for external sources need to be covered by a spoiler tag and include a label (outside of the spoiler tag) of what might be spoiled. These include but are not limited to: other book club picks, other books, games, movies, anime, etc. I recommend also tagging the severity of the spoiler (for example, I may still look at minor spoilers for something that I don’t intend to read soon).
  3. Any information from later in the book than the current week’s reading (including trigger warnings that haven’t yet manifested) needs to be hidden by spoiler tags and labeled as coming from later sections.
Instructions for Spoiler Tags

Click the cog above the text box and use either the “Hide Details” or “Blur Spoiler” options. The text which says “This text will be hidden” should be replaced with what you are wishing to write. In the case of “Hide Details”, the section in the brackets that is labelled “Summary” can be replaced with whatever you like also (i.e, [details=”Chapter 1, Pg. 1”]).

Hide Details results in the dropdown box like below:

Example

This is an example of the “Hide Details” option.

The “Blur Spoiler” option will simply blur the text it surrounds.

Posting Advice
  • When asking for help, please mention the page number, and check before posting that your question hasn’t already been asked. As the threads get longer, it becomes more convenient to use the Search function, which is located in the upper right corner of the forum. It is the magnifying glass which is near your profile picture! The best way to search is usually to type part of the sentence you are confused about, and select “in this topic”. This will show you all posts within the current thread which has that string of text.

  • Be sure to join the conversation! It’s fun, and it’s what keeps these book clubs lively! There’s no such thing as a stupid question! We are all learning here, and if the question has crossed your mind, there’s a very good chance it has crossed somebody else’s also! Asking and answering questions is a great learning opportunity for everyone involved, so never hesitate to do so!

Dang, what a little troll lol

Considering we’re now already almost 50% of the way through this book, I am curious what’s going to happen from here. This chapter definitely had the biggest “peak” in the story so far but since we’re halfway done I’m wondering if the pace won’t pick up much more than this. I am enjoying it, however.

Had to laugh. I liked it, too. I’m still not convinced this parallel world thing isn’t entirely made up.

Jesus Christ, this ending was brutal. Girl has absolutely no chill. They are really made for each other, both perfectly horrible human beings. You think someone is trying to make you angry on purpose? Don’t ask questions, don’t talk to them about it, just execute the most freakishly elaborate plan in existance to humiliate them. Absolutely wonderful. Halfway through the chapter I was thinking of using the joke “Oh, I like the girl, I wish there was a book that explained the story from the perspective of he… oh wait”. But nah, I don’t want to know what kind of mess is in this girl’s head right now.

btw, I’m enjoying the book quite a bit
