  1. In what ways is the Westwind Inn a “character” in the novel?
  2. The ghostly element provides a bit of chilling fun, but what else might it symbolize?
  3. There are several love stories revolving around Westwind. How do they compare? Do they enhance the novel?

  5. Much of the relevant past is told through letters. Is this an effective device? Why or why not?

  7. How does reference to specific music contribute to the story?  
  8. Do you agree with Emmeline that soulmates aren’t necessarily lovers, but can be best friends or places where your soul feels nurtured?
