November's #LiteraryCrew selection is a tad different than previous reads, so it adds a change of pace to our #BuddyRead. Discussion on November 30th.
Read at your own pace. I'll post periodic check-ins throughout the month (unless the month really slips by me).
All are welcome to join us! Please let me know if you wish to be added/removed from the tag list.

Thoughts on the book? Thoughts on the themes? Thoughts on the author? Just thoughts in general?
Will you read more by this author?
Sorry for such a quick little post for the discussion at the end but I'm battling the flu and a cold right now and this is about as much thought as my head can put into anything right now 😆!

7. Setting plays an important part in the novel. Though the location of Four Rivers is left purposefully vague within the United States, where do you think it might be? Why? Compare Orquídea‘s experience growing up in Ecuador and her descendants‘ experience visiting decades later. ~from Simon & Schuster Reading Group Guide #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead
6. The climax of the novel pulls all of the characters back to Four Rivers, to the base of Orquídea Divina‘s ceiba tree. Why was this the perfect location for their last stand? What did it mean for the remaining Montoyas to come together once more? ~from Simon & Schuster Reading Group Guide #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead
5. From fathers who are absent or gone too soon to powerful men who face their downfall before Orquídea, discuss the roles of the men in The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina. How do their relationships with our protagonists affect them? ~from Simon & Schuster Reading Group Guide #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead
4. Though Orquídea remarried several times, her family tree is mainly populated by strong women. Discuss the role of matriarchs in the Montoya family. ~from Simon & Schuster Reading Group Guide #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead
3. Compare and contrast how each of our protagonists—Marimar, Rey, and Tatinelly—have followed their own life paths. In what ways do they each connect with their heritage? ~from Simon & Schuster Reading Group Guide #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead
2. Zoraida has brought the Montoya family so vividly to life that many readers have said they see their own family members in Orquídea, Marimar, Rey, Tatinelly, or the others; or that they wish they could befriend them in real life. Which character resonated with you the most? Why? ~from Simon & Schuster Reading Group Guide #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead
