Saying Grace

The setting for most of the story is a country day school in California. Rue Shaw is the head of the school and the main character, but there are many characters: Rue's husband and daughter, the teachers at the school and their back stories, the children at the school and their families, the members of the school board, the history of the school, the history of other private schools. In fact, that was my issue with the book. The author would start revealing some drama about a character, it would just get interesting, and then that thread would be dropped and another one started with a different character. So I never became invested in the book and felt I was skimming along the surface of it. An unsatisfying read.

Enjoyed & am finally donating as I need to cull bookshelves before moving.
