A Book Club is always a good way to bond with those people who share your love of books, but occasionally the group needs a little prompting on discussion topics to get the conversation flowing. Please find below a few ideas to get things started.
- What were you expecting from the book to start with? Did the book meet your expectations? If not, what was different?
- How does Elektra compare to other retellings of Greek Myths?
- How do you feel about Apollo’s curse on Cassandra, and on what prompted the curse?
- Did you read Ariadne? How did this book compare for you?
- The book is full of reprehensible characters, but who causes the most harm in your eyes?
- Who is your favourite of the three main characters? Which did you identify with the most?
- Did you know how any of the three stories ended before you started to read? How did knowing, or not knowing, make you feel as the plot unravelled?
- Who elses perspective do you think would have enhanced the book?
- How do you think this would translate into a film?
- Would you recommend this to any friends? Who? Why?
