Scythe by Neal Shusterman

Client relates most to Rowan.  What challenges does Rowan face which are similar to your own? How does Rowan deal with these challenges? Is this a healthy / productive / growth way of dealing with those challenges? How can you implement the same positive patterns? Improve upon them? Choose differently and more effectively?

A Stolen Life by Jaycee Dugard

Consider: Jaycee may have felt a bit of "loyalty" to her abductor/abuser at some point. What do you think moved her from those ideas and feelings to where she is today? Keep in mind that at another part of this continuum, she had even determined she would never write about this ordeal, "... no one would ever know what happened." (p. 49) Pay attention to her trajectory and what might have been internal and external motivations. Are these things you can relate to? Implement into your own life?  Could this change your circumstances in any way?
