- Reading
- Read in short sections if the cemetery scenes feel intense, and check in after Jamie enters the grounds. Afterwards, discuss the difference between a dare, genuine choice and pressure from a group.
- Themes
- Belonging and peer pressure: Jamie accepts a cemetery dare because she wants acceptance from the “in crowd” at her new high school. The book?s stance on this remains unclear.
- Grief, memory and family claims: A ghostly woman wants to adopt Jamie as a replacement for her lost daughter. The book?s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- Be ready for sustained cemetery-based fear, ghosts and the threat that Jamie may not escape. The lost daughter element may also bring emotional weight; pause if the supernatural family situation becomes unsettling.
