How to use the Book Club Discussion Generator.
Book club questions should invite interpretation rather than test recall. Base specific questions on the supplied text or synopsis, and label spoilers so participants can choose their discussion depth.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Use the supplied text or synopsis to create open questions about choices, themes and competing interpretations. Attach questions to relevant passages without inventing scenes. Mark spoilers and offer a progression from accessible observations to deeper discussion.
- What you provide
- Book excerpt or accurate summary and group interests.
- What you get
- Spoiler-aware discussion questions.

Example input
Story synopsis: the narrator hides a letter to protect a friend. Create discussion questions grounded only in that supplied action.
Completed example
Spoiler discussion: the hidden letter. 1. What does the narrator seem to believe the letter could change? 2. Does hiding it protect the friend, limit the friend's choices, or both? 3. Which passage in the full story supports your interpretation? 4. What would you need to know about the letter before judging the decision? No additional plot events are assumed.

Decisions and troubleshooting.
Should book-club questions have one approved answer?
Interpretive questions should allow evidence-supported disagreement. Keep factual clarification separate from discussion prompts.
Why do questions mention events the group has not read yet?
The source scope or spoiler boundary may be unclear. Specify the chapters covered and label later material.
Try it with your own source.
Replace the example with your material in the task prompt. Keep the requirements you need, then copy the task into WebAct.
