The Freezer Bunny Club - A Reading Circle

a) Howard drops a bit of a shock on Kass. How do you feel about this father/daughter reunion? What about the introduction of EXCES?

First of all, I loved the introduction to EXCES. I thought it was so interesting how you managed to introduce us to this fictional disease you thought of. It sounds terrifying, honestly. And I can imagine this wasn't a fun surprise for Kass.

I'm not a fan of her father and how he decided to come back into her life. I'm also confused on how he told her all of that, invited her on a roadtrip and then decided to keep himself out of the picture again. I presume to give Kass her space, but I don't think he tried to contact the other girls yet either? They'll need some time to get used to him too and they'll feel weird if Kass does decide to go on a roadtrip with him, because they had no time to process it yet. I'm also confused on why he would want just Kass on the roadtrip and none of the other girls. Well, maybe he does but a little heads-up would have been nice, just like he did with Kass (although maybe in a different way).

b) Amy struggles with depression. Did that show in the chapters?

It's starting to become more apparent in later chapters that she's not entirely okay. I wouldn't immediately call her depressed after reading the chapters in arc 5, but I do see it after reading on a bit and seeing some later events unfold.

c) Kass also exhibits signs of anxiety. Does that show in the chapters?

It does show that Kass is anxious about a bunch of stuff. She overthinks everything which makes her sometimes lose her rationale and spiral with her thoughts. That's how I picked it up anyway. Very well done.

d) What do you think about Kass' job offer?

I was so excited for her! I didn't realise how curious and nosey she was until she got this job offer and the mysteries kept piling up. I feel like this job fits her like a glove. I do hope we get to see more of her actually on the job soon.

a) what did you think of Kass and Ayesha's interactions?

It's the first time we really got to see a huge chunk of them interacting. I like the casual friendship they have. They tease each other a lot and it feels like the fun, lighthearted kind of friendship. I don't always like Ayesha or Kass, but most of the time, I feel like they balance each other out nicely. In this arc and with these interactions, I came to like their friendship.

b) What about the meetup with Davis? How do you feel about a relationship between Kass and Davis?

Ayesha left them alone rather fast, so it'd be interesting to see more interaction between Ayesha and Davis later on. I love Davis and the more I read about him, the more I start to like him. I'm so excited about a relationship between Kass and Davis. Every step of the way I'm hoping nothing will get between them. I'm always looking forward to more moments between them. Especially because I'm at a part right now where he isn't in the picture all that much.

c) What about when the girls went to the high school to "spy?

One of my favourite scenes. Kass was so bold! We hadn't seen that side of her yet and I loved it. It feels like that might be Ayesha's influence on her over the years, so I like that she is more loose sometimes. You managed to make it exciting with Clark walking past and not being sure whether they were going to get caught or not.
