Pound Ridge Library Book Group meets on the last Wednesday of the month.
This month, the Pound Ridge Library Book Group invites you to dive into Next of Kin by Kia Abdullah, a powerful and emotionally charged legal thriller that will spark intense discussion. The story follows Leila Syed, a successful architect whose life is turned upside down when a tragic accident befalls her family. The novel unravels a web of family secrets, betrayal, and devastating moral choices.
Through Abdullah’s compelling storytelling, Next of Kin explores themes of guilt, forgiveness, justice, and the often-blurred lines between right and wrong. With courtroom drama, shifting perspectives, and gut-wrenching moments, this book challenges readers to grapple with what it means to be responsible, both legally and emotionally, for the people closest to us.
The ebook is available on Libby and the ebook and audiobook are available on Hoopla.
