Admissions brilliantly captures the feeble pressure cooker of modern life when a seemingly perfect family is ruined by some desperate measure, long-buried secrets – and an application to enter. university!

The Hawthorne family has it all. Great jobs, a beautiful home in one of Northern California’s wealthiest areas, and three charming kids whose bright futures are almost guaranteed. And then came their eldest daughter’s senior year of high school….

Firstborn Angela Hawthorne is an A-grade student and star athlete, with extra-curricular activities beyond her ears and a college application that won’t write on its own. She has her eye on Harvard, her father’s alma mater, and like a dog with a chew toy, Angela won’t give up until she’s basked in crimson glory. Except her class valedictorian rank is under attack, she suddenly loses her edge in cross country running, and she can’t help but fantasize about a cute baseball player. Of course, Angela knows that her schoolgirl crush’s time would be better spent figuring out a topic for her English semester exam – along with her college essay, yes. The deadline for submissions is fast approaching.

Angela’s mother, Nora, is stretched to the same limit, juggling parent-teacher meetings, carpooling and a real estate career where she serves buyers and the super-rich and super picky in the Bay Area. The youngest daughter, Maya, is in second grade and still can’t read; the middle child, Cecily, wasn’t the happy and lucky kid he used to be; and their father, Gabe, seem oblivious to the growing pressures at home because a horrifying secret of his own may be exposed. A few ill-advised actions have placed the Hawthorne family in a conflict that is both real and interesting – and they learn that whatever it takes to get their lucky life, it can come at a high cost. much more to keep them.

Good story and well told. There are a lot of twists in the plot to maintain interest.
