Main character an admission officer, but she is finds she has so many other events in her life she has not allowed herself to admit. I liked this book and read it very quickly. I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen to Portia at the end of the story. Even though I guessed the secret, I still thought this was a fun read. Since the main character worked in the admissions office of Princeton University, we also got to peek into that world and consider what goes on behind the scenes before one gets either an acceptance or deny from a college or university. The only reason I didn't give it more stars was that I thought it was a little long ... seemed a bit repetitious at times and I kept wishing the author had wrapped it up a bit sooner. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Just as thousands of the nation's brightest students await her decision regarding their academic admission, so too must Portia decide whether to make her own ultimate admission. Admission is at once a fascinating look at the complex college admissions process and an emotional examination of what happens when the secrets of the past return and shake a woman's life to its co Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
