Ok, anonymous author. Still won't shell out the $$ for your book. |
Is this YA? Or has the state of literature reached a point where something as on the nose as "make Wesley white again" is considered a credible plot point?
I hope this is YA. I expect YA to have this level of caricature and black-white thinking. It would be sad to see it continue bleeding into lit fic. Lol on Jeff's redirect prank. Very funny! |
People who read Prep will read it. People who read Mom Daughter Show will read it. Moms in these top schools will read it. It’s not YA or literature, it’s a niche interest book |
My wife got an advanced publisher’s copy and this was on the first page. “Much of this story is true. Names have been changed to protect the innocent. And to keep the guilty guessing. |
Blah blah blah. |
What’s the name of the book?? |
She was a writer in residence at STA and taught for a year while she was writing Prep. STA has a fellowship where a young writer/teacher lives in the dorm and teaches one class while having time to write. |
Lol! |
What book is this? |
I’m the poster whose wife saw an advanced copy. She didn’t go to Sidwell but someone she works with did and said the upper school principal in the book is based on a former principal and is portrayed positively but that a lot of parents are made to look really bad |
But is it going to be better than/different in theme in any way from The Cave Dwellers?

I overlapped with Chelsea at Sidwell and they downplayed it as much as possible. There's plenty to dislike about Sidwell but I don't believe that their admissions spiel emphasizes Chelsea. Not a chance. |
That seems false. Same way they don’t talk about the Obama kids, the Biden kids, etc. they don’t need to ever bring it up. National news does that for them. Seems weird to come here and make that up imo. |
DCUM should collaborate on some fanfic chapters. |
reading DCM is more entertaining |
