1. Scott’s unraveling is slow and grounded — not supernatural, just human. Did he read to you as sympathetic, dangerous, or both at once?

• Mostly sympathetic — I pitied him more than I feared him
• Mostly dangerous — his choices felt predatory
• Both at once — I was torn between empathy and dread

2. The park becomes a stage for escalating tension. Which moment first made you think “something is really wrong here”?

• The pizza night and Scott’s reaction to the camping plans
• The campground / gatehouse scenes at night
• The convenience store encounter
• Another moment entirely

3. How did you feel about Robin’s decisions as the pressure builds — understandable, reckless, or emotionally true under stress?

• Mostly understandable — she’s doing her best with bad options
• Mostly reckless — she ignored too many red flags
• Emotionally true — her choices felt messy but believable

4. Site 123 blurs coincidence with intent. At what point did it stop feeling like “a bad weekend” and start feeling like predation for you?

5. The novel asks whether obsession is closer to love or control. After finishing the story, where did you land?
