At the core, Culpability is a family drama about secrets and communication within a family unit. But it’s overlayed with a topical theme of the role AI, and technology in general, plays in our lives. It brings you philosophical questions about right and wrong and pushes you to examine the role technology plays in your life. Bruce Holsinger does an incredible job of asking these questions and letting the reader answer them for themselves.

Damn. This is not a perfect book, and even for an issue book, it veers over the line into preachy a couple times. However, it is propulsively plotted and the characters are interesting, and the questions it raises are excellent. I can think of at least ten very different people who would like this book. I would absolutely love to do this in a book club, and even though I am not the type who usually comes up with my own discussion questions, I found them popping into my head.
