The Country Road Murders
Cut along the dashed lines and pass the cards around the table.
Curl up and share: what's the coziest place you settled in to read this one, and did the small-town setting suit that spot?
What's a hometown food, smell, or Sunday routine this book stirred up for you?
Coming back to the place you grew up can feel like a warm blanket or a tight sweater. Which did it feel like for the main character, and which does it feel like for you?
Where in the story did you feel the most tenderness, a moment that made you slow down and just sit with it?
The book leans on the bond between fathers and sons. What memory of a parent or mentor did it gently bring back for you?
Small towns can hold people close and also hold them accountable. When has a community wrapped around you when you needed it?
Grief has a way of showing up years later at odd moments. How did the book handle that quiet, long-tail kind of loss, and did any part of it comfort you?
Without giving anything away, what did the story leave you feeling as you closed the book, and what would you want to talk over a second cup of tea?
