If you’re looking for Verity book club questions, you’re in the right place. Colleen Hoover’s psychological romantic thriller delivers tension, moral ambiguity, and numerous “wait… what?” moments that practically beg for a group discussion. This guide gives you the context, themes, and FAQs you need – plus your downloadable question list is already included below.

Brief Summary of Verity

A struggling writer accepts a once-in-a-lifetime job finishing a successful author’s series. While researching in the author’s home, she discovers a private manuscript that forces her to question everything—about the past, her family, and herself. As attraction, fear, and doubt escalate, the line between truth and fiction blurs.

Themes & Topics To Discuss

• Truth vs. Narrative: Who gets to tell the “real” story, and how much do we trust any single account?
• Moral Ambiguity: How do the characters rationalize questionable choices? What would you have done differently?
• Intimacy & Power: Where do persuasion and manipulation overlap in relationships?
• Grief & Trauma: How do loss and fear shape decisions throughout the book?
• Ethics in Writing: Are there lines writers shouldn’t cross? Does intent matter as much as impact?
