The Split by Laura Kay | Book Club Questions

Normally when I’m planning a book club, I will Google the name of the book followed by “book club questions”, but for The Split by Laura Kay, this returned no useful results. Therefore, I’ve decided to publicly share the questions I’ve made for this book.

All I ask in return is that you credit me!

And beware, spoilers ahead


  1. First things first, did you enjoy the book? How did it meet your expectations?

  2. Was Ally justified, in your opinion, in taking the cat?

  3. Did the emails to Emily help or do more harm than good?

  4. What affect did Jeremy have on Ally’s life? What did you think of their relationship?

  5. Obviously, this is a queer book, but did you feel like it was a romance book? What genre would you categorise it in?

  6. To what extent does Ally grow, or does she just get lucky?

  7. How did the author use the character Jo, to shape the narrative?

  8. Would you read more books by this author?
