- Reading
- Consider reading together or checking in after the battle-related revelations; ask whether the story’s treatment of fear and loyalty feels clear or complicated.
- Themes
- Courage and a father’s reputation: Spensa learns that her father deserted his flight and attacked his team, while suspecting there is more to the story. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Trusting what one is taught: Spensa discovers that what she has been taught about her world is untrue, and must face unsettling discoveries beyond her planet. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- The plot includes battle, a reported attack on a team, a father’s desertion, and Spensa finding the stars terrifying. These may merit attention if those subjects feel close to home.
