Open Mind Book Club for Women

October 21, 2025 @ 2:00 pm

Join us in a  monthly book club to read and discuss books as chosen by the group. Meetings are held the third Tuesday of each month.

This is a reminder that our meeting for this month is this coming Tuesday (September 16) at 2:00 PM at the Harmony Center. We will be discussing, “The Salt Path.”

Our next month’s book is, “The Woman in Cabin 10,” by Ruth Ware.  I have attached discussion questions.
Barbara has offered her home to us for our October meeting. Her address is: 102 Quail Meadows in Sequim. It will be a potluck. So, bring something yummy. 🙂
Here are some possible discussion questions:
  1. How would you describe the book? A roller coaster ride? Predictable mystery? Careful attention to detail? Just a fun read? Unexpected twists and turns? Not what I expected? Kept me reading and on the edge of my seat?
  2. Did you find Lo (Laura) a likable, believable character? Why or why not?
  3. What was the connection between the burglary at Lo’s apartment and the events on the ship?
  4. Which characters aroused your suspicions during the story? Who did you think was the woman in Cabin 10? Why? Did that change?
  5. What is Stockholm Syndrome and do you think that effected Lo and Carrie’s relationship?
  6. How effective were the email messages in moving the story forward? Were they necessary? Irrelevant. Red herrings?
  7. What was the connection between the dark haired girl in a Pink Floyd t-shirt on Archer’s phone and the woman in cabin 10? Was that photo relevant to the mystery or a red herring?
  8. Was Carrie a victim, co-conspirator or primary conspirator in the crime on the high seas?
  9. Why did Lo have a change of heart at the end of the novel and decide to move to New York? Did that seem like a normal response?
  10. What happened to the main characters by the end of the book? Lo, Judah, Richard, Anne, Ben, Carrie, and Johann? Others?
  11. How was the mystery resolved and were you satisfied with the ending of the story? Why or why not?
  12. Were there unanswered questions in the plot? If so, what wasn’t covered or finalized in the ending?
