Fluff- but fun fluff. Great for a plane ride, rainy day or when you want to zone out and realize how ridiculous rich people in NYC can be.

This is a very amusing look at private kindergarten admissions in NYC. The characters are smartly written. This is a fun summer read!

The Ivy Chronicles is a laugh-out loud story about the cutthroat and corrupt kindergarten private school admission process in New York City, specifically, Manhattan. These wealthy and eclectic parents will stop at nothing to get their little darlings admitted to the top tier kindergartens known as the Little Ivies. Karen Quinn actually navigated these waters and her accounting of the ups and downs are positively hysterical. I haven't laughed this much in ages!
