A Family Sin by Travis Hunter is a book that explores the obligations that family members have for each other. Karim is a Financial Analyst with a live-in girlfriend and a son. He is doing everything he can to live a better life, but is constantly consumed with his family. His older brother, Omar, is in prison for life on a murder rap. His sister, Nadiah, is a beautiful girl who is always in love with the wrong man. She has one daughter she does not have custody of and a son, JaQuan on his way to trouble because he has anger issues about how he has been treated by the people in his life. Momma Mae is the grandmother who has taken care of her grandbabies, but has her own issues as the gun-toting, bootlegger in the hood. I loved reading this book that is an old play on the biblical theme of 'the sins of the fathers always show up through the generations.' Mr. Hunter does a wonderful job of exploring family relationships, commitments and how so often parents are bound up in their own woes and are unable to help their children. Even with all the family sins and struggles it was beautiful to read how this family was always there for each other. A Family Sin is recommended for all readers who enjoy a fast-paced, contemporary novel with a heartfelt message about how important family is. Great job Mr. Hunter. Angelia Menchan APOOO BookClub
