All hallows moon

The central tension links self-control with other people’s efforts to stop a possible killing. Seth’s divided loyalties offer a separate thread about how affection and duty can pull in different directions.

The premise includes murderous urges, hunters seeking to stop Rylie with a silver bullet, and a threat of someone being killed.

If Rylie’s urges become difficult to control, what does the story suggest about balancing personal responsibility with others’ attempts to protect people?

Consider reading together or checking in after tense sections, and talk about what Rylie and Seth each see as their responsibilities. The book is listed second in the Seasons of the Moon series; starting with the first may provide context.
