Jean Hanff Korelitz's Admission
I'm not really sure what to say about this book, which is about a woman who works in the admission office at Princeton (the author, whose husband is a Princeton prof, apparently was a part-time admissions reader for two years). It's not that it's not an ok read, but it has a lot of problems. Like the protagonist has way too many speeches about the admissions process. And the big secret is (I'm sure supposed to be) obvious, but it's officially revealed annoyingly late. And the end is kind of a mess from a story point of view. Eh. B.
