"The END of ALICE" - book club read - October 2013

Welcome to our sticky post for this month's book club read! Just like last month with Neal Shusterman's "UNWIND" (which I hope everyone enjoyed, and the post will remain up forever for discussion), I once again have no self-control, so I've already finished reading "THE END OF ALICE," which is all the more reason for me to say, again: I can't wait to hear what you guys have to say about it as you go.

Feel free to post any and all thoughts, questions, and discussion topics as threads to this post; if you're in doubt about whether you're spoiling plot points, you can simply use the spoiler tags (much like an LJ-cut) in your comments, [Spoiler (click to open)]like this! You can use the html code of < lj-spoiler > spoilery stuff goes here < /lj-spoiler >, minus the spaces, of course. It may also help other readers to find your point of reference if you include a page/chapter/percentage notation at the start of your comment, too, but proceed however you find it's easiest.

As this will remain a public post for the duration of the month, anonymous commenting is enabled here, as promised; if anyone tries it and finds it's not working, please let me know & I'll tweak things until it does.

Since I (and probably at least a few others among you) have read the entire book, there's a ready-made group of us who'll be happy to answer questions and jump into discussions already. Happy October, all, and to those joining us for "THE END OF ALICE," happy (?!?) reading!
