    Gossip of the Starlings Gossip of the Starlings by Nina de Gramont

    My review

     rating: 5 of 5 stars
    I loved this book. It relates the lives of high school age kids who are living a much different experience than I did at that time in my life. I was a public school/private school kid but not residential private school as these are. Very enlightening. They confront many of the same issues that I remember even though they are 30 years removed from my experience. Strangely enough, despite the difference in time and place, I found myself thinking, much too often, "there but for the grace of God...".

    I also found myself thankful for growing up WITHOUT being wealthy...I got into enough without unlimited funds!

Hi!
About a year ago I started looking for a place online to talk about high school academic classes AND reading. I really wanted a place for my UTeach-Liberal Arts students, current and former, to talk about their classes and ask questions. So here it is…

If you’re not a Longhorn, it’s okay…I’m not either, except by employment!
