Read With Us: The John of John Discussion

The time has come to discuss Douglas Stuart’s latest book, John of John. Today on our blogs, Bonny and Kym and I are each posting questions about the book. You are welcome to answer questions in the comments, or mull over the questions today in preparation for the zoom tonight.

My question is this:

Several characters in John of John find themselves caught between what they feel they should do and what they actually want for themselves. Who do you think gives up the most out of a sense of duty or obligation? Do you think that sacrifice was worth it?

I am looking forward to reading (and hearing) your responses.
