Meeting Minutes: 4/7/09 (4 - 5pm in the Board Room)
Present: Miko, J.F., M.M., V.M., W. M.
1. Did you like the book and the main character?
- I did. I liked the book a TON. It was fantastic.
- Yes and yes.
- I thought the main character was cool.
- It was better than Twilight.
2. What was your favorite part?
- The very end, when Keturah chooses Lord Death.
- Me too -- I didn't expect it.
- When Lord Death is fighting with John Temsland.
3. What was your least favorite part?
- I don't think I had one. It was all very interesting.
- The prologue. I didn't get it. So did it all happen, or was it just a story?
- Oh, I didn't even read the prologue.
4. If you were Keturah, would you choose John Temsland or Lord Death?
- Girls always go for the mysterious, tall, dark types.
- Lord Death, completely, all the way.
- Lord Death. There's something appealing and mysterious about him.
- Lord Death without a second thought.
- John was too much of a goody-goody.
5. Did you have a favorite character? Who?
- Lord Death. He's very charming in that weird way.
- I agree.
- Obvious answer.
- Soor Lily was kind of cool too.
6. Who was your least favorite character?
- Gretta. She's too much of a perfectionist. "I'm not marrying him because he wears orange tights." Who says that?
- Ben Marshall.
- Padmoh.
7. Lord Death tells Keturah to name a person to die in her place. Keturah refuses. Could you be as selfless?
- Maybe...?
- If I didn't like somebody. It's easy to just point at someone you don't know on the street. It was harder for Keturah because she knew everyone in her village.
- I could not be that selfless.
- I don't think someone should die for you if it's your time to die.
8. Are you afraid of dying? If you were Keturah, would you have been afraid?
- Yes. Well, I really don't know.
- Actually, no. My mom and I talk about death.
- My aunt was driving in her car, and it was a perfectly sunny day. Then, out of nowhere, lightning struck a telephone pole and hit her car, and she died. My mom kind of brought me up to believe that if it's your time to go, it's your time to go.
- I would be very afraid. I would break down crying.
9. Keturah is determined to fall in love, even though she has only one day left. If you knew you only had one day to live, what would you do?
- Everything and anything I could.
- I think I would just want to make sure my friends and family knew I loved them. Leave a good impression.
- I would have a normal day.
- Spend a pleasant day with family. Go to the movies, or to the park.
- Ride a roller coaster. At Knott's Berry Farm.
- Do risky stuff, like bungee jumping, paragliding, or skydiving.
- It'd be a good time do something you've never done before.
10. Keturah is famous and popular for being an incredible storyteller. Are you? Or do you have a friend who's a great storyteller? Are they/you popular for this reason?
- Writing stories is easier.
- I can't do that either. I get nervous. Or I blank out. I have a friend like that.
- I have a friend like that. People like that are like instant magnets. And he's really popular. But he's not big-headed about it.
- C.E.'s good at telling stories. When we were little, she would make up a story, and I'd be so scared.
- I blank out in the middle of stories. I ruin jokes.
11. Do you believe in the afterlife?
- I think it's possible.
- I think I'll just have to wait and find out. I need hardcore facts.
- It's kind of a scary thought.
