Review: The Gifted School

The Gifted School by Bruce Holsinger
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 out of 5 stars - If you ask me, I'll tell you to read it

This book had so many messed up relationships on so many levels. Marriages, friendships, parent/child... All levels of messed up.

Four women met at a "mommy and me" event over 10 years ago. The four stayed friends through life's various ups and downs. Now, they're navigating the application process to a new gifted school in their district, sure that their kid is gifted enough to get in. The process brings out the pettiness in relationships and the backstabbing and lying that can be done when someone wants to give their kid a leg up.

This book made me think about relationships in my life and how I might react to some of these situations in my life (if I had kids).
