This week, we're taking the talk back home where we'll have a roundtable of editors discussing the biggest issues you asked us during all of our chats and commenting sessions.
Join us by leaving your thoughts on the following topics on our discussion page:
- Do adults and teens read this book differently?
- What does each group get out of it?

See you at 4pm ET!
