In Adams’ gentle novel, there is no sorrow or trouble so great that a good book-and a supportive friend-cannot help, and it is never too late to become a reader. Reading is so often viewed as a solitary pursuit, but The Reading List turns that idea on its head, illustrating the ways one book can touch many lives and act as a shared point of empathy, uniting disparate individuals into a community. The books act as a lifeline for Mukesh and Aleisha as the two new friends navigate their personal tribulations. What begins as a whim soon transforms into a deeply enriching and gratifying experience. Following a disastrous first meeting with Mukesh, Aleisha stumbles upon a mysterious list of book titles, which she decides she will recommend to Mukesh and read alongside him as a means of making amends. There he meets Aleisha, a teenager who dreams of becoming a lawyer and views her summer position at the library with disdain. Desperate to form a connection with his bookish granddaughter, Mukesh heads to the local library to try to better understand her. We first meet Mukesh, a widower who is grieving the passing of his beloved wife (who was a voracious reader) and finds himself increasingly alienated from the rest of his family. Not only did this relationship cultivate a lifelong case of bibliophilia, but it also served as the inspiration for The Reading List, a story about two lonely individuals whose initial common ground is, ironically, that neither has any interest in reading. She has worked as a book editor and attributes her passion for reading to her early childhood, when she bonded with her grandfather over their shared love of literature.
Although Sara Nisha Adams makes her authorial debut with The Reading List, her connection to the world of books is not new.
