I rolled my eyes at our club's 'no spoiler' rule for the first 50 pages

Then we read 'The Silent Patient' and a guy's 'theoretical' guess in Denver last week was the exact twist, which totally ruined the debate. Has your group ever had a spoiler accident that changed a whole meeting?

Ugh, that's the worst! We had a guy who kept saying stuff like "just wait for the real reason she left the house" during our "Rebecca" discussion. It wasn't a direct quote, but his tone made everyone guess the whole plot by chapter five. Totally killed the vibe for the new members.

Oh the "just wait" guy... classic move, @piperf40. It's like they think they're a movie trailer narrator but for books. Really takes the fun out of finding out what happens next when someone's basically winking at the big twist.
