Book Club Questions – At the Quiet Edge

February 6, 2023 by Victoria

The cover for At the Quiet Edge by Victoria Helen Stone. A cloudy night sky is lit from below by a solitary streetlight. A car drives away from us down a lonely highway, the brake lights are lit up in red.

Hi all! I got a request for some book club questions for At the Quiet Edge, so I’ve brainstormed a few for you here! Careful, there is one spoiler in the questions, so I’ve marked it with a warning. Happy reading!

  1. How did the setting of At the Quiet Edge —a self-storage facility at the edge of town— influence your response to the story? How did it contribute to the plot in ways other settings might not have?
  2. Did the small town of Herriman feel different from other small town book settings? How did it compare with your own experience of small towns? Are there reasons for any differences?
  3. Was Lily’s withholding of information from Everett right or wrong?
  4. Were your reactions different when experiencing fear and danger through Everett’s eyes than they were through Lily’s point of view?
  5. How did Lily change by the end of the book?
  6. [SPOILER]…….. Did you-know-who redeem himself? Do you think his new relationship with Everett will be beneficial?
  7. Which character did you most identify with?

Up Close Interview with The Big Thrill!

March 2, 2021 by Victoria

by Angela Channell

“In THE LAST ONE HOME, the latest title by Jane Doe author Victoria Helen Stone, nobody can be trusted. Least of all your family.

Lies and the choosing of whose truth to believe has driven a wedge between mother and daughter Lauren and Donna Abrams, Stone’s steely protagonists. It’s through their voices that we alternately hear of how Lauren came to want nothing to do with Donna, whose spurious testimony sent Lauren’s father to prison for murder years ago…

The novel is psychologically complex due to these two competing voices, which Stone attributes to wanting to convey the real-life complexity of secrets and truth. “I really wanted to examine the truth as a three-dimensional object that can’t be entirely seen by one set of eyes,” she says. “Lauren views her mother through the lens of the difficult and twisted life they lived together. That’s all she can see. But Donna’s narrative offers an utterly different story from an utterly different woman than ‘Lauren’s mom.’”
