My favorite genre is WASPs. Sub genre: WASPs & elite schools.
This one checked so many boxes for me. A bunch of characters with different stories and lives but they all come together in some way. I find it so funny when parents care so much about what school their 12 year olds are going to so I found a lot of the plot enjoyable and funny, but it kind of all become a little deeper at the end.
Some Big Little Lies vibes for sure, but maybe a little less intense?
Highly recommend this one for readers who like a big cast of characters in a more character driven novel!
