Classic Trash discussion

This topic is for those who want to discuss the book in progress. No spoilers please!

I was really curious about this one, as it's way outside my typical range, so I had to start on it early.

A lot of HIPAA violations right out of the gate!

I, too, started it early and finished it. It’s a little cheesy, but in a good way. The writing really pulls you in, and keeps the suspense going. Short chapters, with “cliffhanger” endings. I liked this book alot more than I thought I would.

Yes, that doctor is something else. A cheesy character, but fun if you don’t take the book too seriously.

One think I found helpful to do was to make a list of characters and list info about them (i.e. how they related to certain other characters). There are a ton of characters in this book, and if they're mentioned once they'll most likely show up again later. Some I had to look back in the story to remember who they were and how they mattered to the plot, so I started a list. Much easier after that.

Can there really be more characters than there were in The Mote?

Sorry, Jay, I didn't finsh The Mote. It looked pretty character-packed, though.

Is it just me or does Robin talk more like a teenager than a ten-year-old?

Also is this a mystery? I feel like it’s telling us who’s guilty? Only about half way through though, excited to see how this all fits together.

Yeah, Robin is very sophisticated for 10.
