Pound Ridge Library Book Group

The Pound Ridge Library Book group will be reading The Escape Room by Megan Goldin. Four co-workers are trapped in an elevator because they are participating in a corporate team building exercise. The elevator is the escape room. They need to solve clues to escape.

We will be meeting, as always, on the third Wednesday of the month in person in the Schaffner Room at the Library. Books copies are available at the circulation desk. See more about this month’s book below, and happy reading!

“Welcome to the escape room. Your goal is simple. Get out alive. In the lucrative world of finance, Vincent, Jules, Sylvie, and Sam are at the top of their game. They’ve mastered the art of the deal and celebrate their success in style―but a life of extreme luxury always comes at a cost. Invited to participate in an escape room challenge as a team-building exercise, the ferociously competitive co-workers crowd into the elevator of a high-rise building, eager to prove themselves. But when the lights go off and the doors stay shut, it quickly becomes clear that this is no ordinary competition: they’re caught in a dangerous game of survival. Trapped in the dark, the colleagues must put aside their bitter rivalries and work together to solve cryptic clues to break free. But as the game begins to reveal the team’s darkest secrets, they realize there’s a price to be paid for the terrible deeds they committed in their ruthless climb up the corporate ladder. As tempers fray, and the clues turn deadly, they must solve one final chilling puzzle: which one of them will kill in order to survive?” Goodreads
