A review by kallbri
Admission by Jean Hanff Korelitz

5.0

When you get to the end of a book and loudly exclaim, "NO!," you know it was completely worth it. Jean Hanff Korelitz writes real characters that pull you into their lives hoping for the best, or the worst. I had no trouble connecting with Portia, the protagonist, and dizzying life of stress. Being a current university attendee (though at a school that accepts all applicants), the story had me feeling remorse for all those who applied to a college/university of their dreams and were denied, but even more so for those who had to do the denying. It was hard for me to put it down, but even harder to deal with the fact that book had to come to an end.
