2000s: What if the Accident, the Accusation, the Kiss, and the Bite were words that summed up your college years?
Assigned to the same suite during their freshman year at Quincy-Hawthorn College, Lainey, Ji Sun, Alice, and Margaret quickly become inseparable. The leafy green campus they move through together, the idyllic window seat they share in their suite, and the passion and ferocity that school and independence awakens in them ignites an all-encompassing love with one another. But they soon find their bonds–forged in joy, and fused by fear–must weather threats that originate from beyond the dark forests of their childhoods, and come at them from institutions, from one another, and ultimately, from within themselves.
Lainey, Ji Sun, Alice, and Margaret are all assigned to the same rooms during their freshman year in college. They become good friends very quickly and the novel takes us through their lives at college and beyond. Remember your life at college and some of it might come back to you although not any of what’s in the book hopefully!
The book includes four parts with each part dealing with a mistake made by one of the women. These are: the Accident, the Accusation, the Kiss, and the Bite.
The college in the story is fictional thank goodness – imagine what it would be like if those four woods could sum it up! You do get a keen sense of the college environment and girls friendships during their freshman year. Will make you pleased to be older than those in the novel.
