Shoutout to the library in Springfield for changing how I run my book club

We had our meeting there last Tuesday and a huge fight broke out over the ending of 'The Silent Patient'. The librarian actually came over and showed us how to use their 'discussion question' cards (they have a whole box of them). Has anyone else tried using prepared questions to keep things on track?

Those cards sound like they'd kill any real debate though, just makes everything feel scripted.

Heard a podcast where a club said those cards saved them from dissolving. They used them as a starting point, not a script. It kept the peace without killing the good arguments.
