Please be aware that this discussion guide will contain spoilers!

1. How long would you wait for the release of a book from your favorite author? How much patience would you have?

2. Libby thinks about the things that tether her to life despite her despair: Rolf, her dog, and her book series. What are your tethers?

3. Is it important to prepare for death? Why does there seem to be a reticence to talk about death in general?

4. Do you see the characters from your favorite books in your dreams? Can you imagine them standing next to you? What would they say?

5. Why would someone want to write under a pseudonym? What are the reasons someone would want to keep their identity a secret?

6. How important are book or series endings to you? Does a bad ending ruin a good book? Does a good ending enhance an overall uninteresting read?

7. Peanut idolizes the writer of the Falling Children series. How do you think about your idols? Would you be upset or angry if some- one insulted them?

8. Dr. Bixton says this about Libby's dementia: "You didn't cause this, and you can't cure it. But you sure can't deal with it alone." What other parts of life does this statement apply to?

9. There is the constant assumption throughout the book that F. T. Goldhero is a man. What does that say about people's preconceptions?
