Made for different kinds of conversation
The discussion materials are designed to be flexible. Readers can explore them individually, choose a few questions for an informal book club, or use the structured guide to support a facilitated group conversation.
Libraries, bookshops, community reading groups and literary organisations are welcome to use the non-commercial discussion materials when exploring the book with readers.
Facilitator support
Hosting a conversation?
You do not need to work through every question. Choose the prompts that suit your group, make room for different readings, and use the spoiler guidance to decide how far into the story the conversation should travel.
A continuing literary world
New stories. New conversations.
The Accidental Follow opens the Behind the Feed Book Club. As the literary world grows, future stories can bring new characters, places and questions into the conversation.
The Book Club will grow alongside the published work, creating new ways for readers to encounter and discuss each story.
