BOOK CLUB
Share your thoughts on today’s best-selling novels, moderated by Nicole Yablans, an English teacher and library consultant. January’s pick, Culpability by Bruce Holsinger—an Oprah’s Book Club selection and one of The New Yorker’s Best Books of 2025—is a tense, thought-provoking family drama about moral responsibility in the age of AI, sparked by a fatal crash involving a self-driving car and the secrets that surface in its aftermath.
