\"KINDREDFor those of you who participate in Book Reading Discussion\u00c2\u00a0 Groups,<\/strong> I wanted to let you know that I’ve posted ten discussion questions<\/strong><\/a> related to KINDRED SPIRIT on my official Web site. Please note that these questions assume the reader has finished the book. For anyone who has not read the book I would caution you that these questions contain several plot spoilers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I believe that Kindred Spirit,<\/em> more than my prior novels (Wither, Wither’s Rain,<\/em> and Wither’s Legacy<\/em>) lends itself to reading group discussion. I’m hoping the provided questions, even if they are only used as a starting point, will stimulate interest in Kindred Spirit<\/em> for book discussion groups. For readers who have not read a lot of genre fiction, it is my most accessible novel. Yes, there are genre elements (ghosts, possession, haunting, a telepathic bond between identical twin sisters), but they are minimal compared the genre influences in my previous works.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to learn more about Kindred Spirit,<\/em> you can view the book detail page<\/a> without stumbling across the spoilers on the separate Reading Group Discussion Questions page.<\/p>\n

Kindred Spirit<\/em> has already gotten some rave reader reviews online. As always, I’m interested in hearing what you<\/strong> think about my new book.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading!
