What I'm Reading

I like books that take place in educational settings, and was interested in Testimony by Anita Shreve the moment I picked up the book and read the dust jacket. This chilling, haunting story of bad decisions and their consequences had me turning the pages.

In working with college students, I can see an infinite number of possibilities for disaster. Every decision we make matters, and sometimes youth or ennui or excess can nudge us into questionable circumstances. Testimony is a book that, when you read it, makes you thank your lucky stars for every prudent decision you've made and for every time that luck has landed on your side.
