Helpful Score: 1
A sex scandal at an exclusive New England boarding school unleashes repercussions on each person involved, even those on the far edges. The ripple effect is devastating. This story told by each character either through an interview or through their personal viewpoint. The book bounces back and forth between character voices and builds a complete picture of their inner selves, their loves, desires, hates and how they must go on.
This story could only have been told in the magnificent manner that Anita Shreve took. The depth of understanding written and read kept me engaged from the first sentence to the last. The realistic actions and consequences are a great reminder of how one moment of our lives, one bad decision, or one time of being in the wrong place can change everything.
This is a great book and I highly recommend it to all level readers from high school on.
