This episode we are doing Horror Lite! Paige's friend Sammie chose a book for us that has just enough horror elements to not scare the uninitiated but also has an original concept that all of us appreciated. Tune in to hear about the Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins.

The Library at Mount Char, by Scott Hawkins

Folio Facts: This month Jennifer digs into the story of Mark Hoffman, who’s story was recently highlighted in the documentary, Murder Among the Mormons.

Discussion Questions

  • Which of the catalogs would you want to study?
  • The concept of a heart coal is cool as fuck and we should discuss.
  • Why is the language catalogue the most powerful in the library? And how does Carolyn capitalize on this power?
  • Was the library at Mount char the library at Alexandria at one point? Destroyed to keep it secret???
  • Father tells Carolyn about the chances he gave David to become the heir to the universe, and Carolyn being the monster he has to overcome. What does this say about Nature vs. Nurture?
