Book Review of Admission

Admission
Admission
Author: Jean Hanff Korelitz
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Hardcover
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 4


Really not too impressed. It seemed long and took me forever to read. She goes on and on about the reviewer process until you're like "enough already." The last 100 pages are actually the best, most interesting part of the book, when the character develops a small amount of personality. It does let you know something about what college admission officers look for, but it may tell you more of what not to do and what not to expect than anything else. It's a lot like reading about someone with a really ugly, hard job you're really glad you don't have.
