The All Good Books group will meet on Thursday, July 13, 2017 in the Community of Christ Church Library (7842 Mission Road, Prairie Village, KS) at 7:00 PM to discuss The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware. You’re invited!
Here are some possible discussion questions:
- How would you describe the book? A roller coaster ride? Predictable mystery? Careful attention to detail? Just a fun read? Unexpected twists and turns? Not what I expected? Kept me reading and on the edge of my seat?
- Did you find Lo (Laura) a likable, believable character? Why or why not?
- What was the connection between the burglary at Lo’s apartment and the events on the ship?
- Which characters aroused your suspicions during the story? Who did you think was the woman in Cabin 10? Why? Did that change?
- What is Stockholm Syndrome and do you think that effected Lo and Carrie’s relationship?
- How effective were the email messages in moving the story forward? Were they necessary? Irrelevant. Red herrings?
- What was the connection between the dark haired girl in a Pink Floyd t-shirt on Archer’s phone and the woman in cabin 10? Was that photo relevant to the mystery or a red herring?
- Was Carrie a victim, co-conspirator or primary conspirator in the crime on the high seas?
- Why did Lo have a change of heart at the end of the novel and decide to move to New York? Did that seem like a normal response?
- What happened to the main characters by the end of the book? Lo, Judah, Richard, Anne, Ben, Carrie, and Johann? Others?
- How was the mystery resolved and were you satisfied with the ending of the story? Why or why not?
- Were there unanswered questions in the plot? If so, what wasn’t covered or finalized in the ending?
