I received a gifted copy and am providing a review.
I found this to be one of those sorts of reads you want to keep turning pages through because the author keeps dropping hints that something bad happened. It is told in the timeframes of “Then” and “Now,” using the voice of Ambrosia Wellington relating her experiences and her truths at Wesleyan.
It all started when Ambrosia (Amb as she is called) received an invitation to a class reunion in the mail which she tried to hide, but her husband (Adrian) found and decided they should go. What a tangled web of lies and deceit Amb learned how to weave her way through after meeting Sloane “Sully” Sullivan at Wesleyan. This is a tale of how some college girls will do what it takes to fit in at the expense of others. Enter the parties, the drinking, the drugs, and most of all the college boys.
While this is a work of fiction, I can’t help but think that perhaps this really does happen to some people. To that end, it is a tragic story and really shines a light on bullying and its consequence. It also shines on a light on lies that can haunt you well past their “expiration” date.
