Ok dear, more woke crap. Not interested

Please explain why this perspective isn’t valid/important/needed. I’ll wait.

"Prep" was actually good. This one sounds desperate/wannabe/striving.

Funny. I know so many novelists whose work has been shopped around Hollywood and goes nowhere.

It says she’s on the PA and gala committee but not of which school

There is no gala and never has been.

.

Yes but there’s an auction. Or at least there used to be. Literary license.

It used to be gala like before 2020

The Gala in the gym? I wouldn’t call it that.

They don’t need to be “made” to look bad.

$30 for a self-published digital audiobook?

Japanese American SFS student with SFs teacher mom.

Main topic is racism against anyone not white.

Ok….

No thanks. Pass.

What an aspirational book!

In this YA genre too?
Are the DC private schools gobbling it up to displace all the classic period piece books with circa 2020 DEI “novels”?

Ah yes, a big budget film is totally in the works.

Makes so much sense, given all the success, awards and readership.

No actual publisher so no rev share there!
