One More Day (40 page)

2) Community and acceptance are huge themes in this book. How important is your “community” in your life? How do you define community? How has technology changed our definition of the word (in light of social media and the ability to see/talk to people over great distances)?
 

3) The romance between Jackson and Ridley starts with a lie. This is a romance novel so, of course, there’s a happy ending. But do you think this kind of happy ending is possible in the real world?
 

4) “
But it’s not easy when your sister is smarter, more confident, and more popular than you are. It's living with constant comparison and feeling like you never measure up.”
 

This is how Ridley describes growing up in her vibrant sister’s shadow. Since the girls are identical twins, clearly her sister has no physical advantage over her. So, how much of Ridley’s current troubles do you think stem from her self-esteem issues? Do you think the differences in the girl’s lives is due to her poor self-esteem or does society truly reward certain personality types over others? Raina is very brash and bold while Ridley is introverted and hesitant. Are people with the former personality type predisposed to success?

5) Even though romance fiction is a billion dollar industry, until recently many women were embarrassed to admit they read it. Romance novels usually present a relatively conservative definition of a happy ending with two people falling in love and then getting married.

Are modern women made to feel that wanting “traditional” things like marriage is at odds with being independent and self-sufficient?
