The School for Good Mothers

“The girls are mirror images of the mothers, dressed in navy blue jumpsuits and sneakers. The circle constricts. They sit close enough to touch shoulders, becoming, for a moment, one mother, a hydra of disappointed faces.”

There’s some really clever writing, and then it’s suddenly very dull and textbook-like.

“She had been kissed, a few times, by Adam Hawkins. And she had not cared for it. She was not offended or grossed out. But it felt, to her, like people were making a very big deal out of what was, essentially, no different from eating a cracker.”
