📖 Cliffhanger Highlight (20 minutes) We’ll read a suspenseful excerpt from the assigned chapters aloud as a group. Together, we’ll discuss how the scene set the tone, dropped hints, or cleverly misled us.
💭 Discussion Questions (30 minutes) Dive deep into the week’s chapters with engaging questions:
- Who do we suspect?
- What twists left you gasping?
- How do you feel about the detective or main character’s actions?Share your theories, favorite lines, and moments that left you on edge.
🕵️ Detective’s Notebook (10 minutes)Let’s piece together the mystery on our shared "evidence board." Add notes about suspects, motives, red herrings, or anything that stands out. This interactive element keeps us all invested in the case.
📚 Assignment & Teasers (10 minutes) Wrap up by assigning next week’s chapters, paired with teaser questions to keep the suspense alive:
- “Will [Character X] survive?”
- “Is [Clue Y] really what it seems?”Feel free to jot down your own case notes during the week to share at our next meeting!
