The Last Show at the Seaside : A Novel. by Cabot, Meg.;

One of us / by Day, Elizabeth,1978-author.;
"When Fliss, the eccentric grown daughter of the powerful Fitzmaurice clan, is found dead on beach in Bali, what seems like a tragic accident stirs more suspicion than closure for those who've traded favors with-and within-her family for decades. There is Ben, Fliss's brother, eager to minimize his sister's passing, since it's suddenly clear he's next in line to be Prime Minister. And Martin-Ben's erstwhile best friend-who is just happy that Fliss's memorial gives him the chance to re-enter the Fitzmaurice orbit, seeking revenge and acceptance. He can't help but notice that Ben's wife, Serena, seems to have discovered in middle age that her privileged existence is more like a gilded cage. Or that Ben and Serena's daughter Cosima has become an environmental activist fighting against everything her parents seem to stand for-a pivot her late aunt would've applauded. Where does Richard Take-Ben's disgraced colleague, determined to make his big comeback, fit in? And circling them all is Andrew Jarvis and his money: Has he been their loyal hero, or the one who has thrown his weight around just to keep them all in check? Delivering incisive commentary on the hypocrisies of the elite, this juicy ensemble drama about old friends and dazzling wealth perfectly captures the uneasy balance between personal ambition and collective responsibility. One of Us is a page-turner with teeth, a mash-up of The Wedding People and Succession-darkly comic and cutting, as well as unexpectedly hopeful"--

The optimists : a novel / by Platzer, Brian,author.;
"Mr. Keating is an extraordinary teacher: brilliant and dedicated, he's a magician able to enchant fourteen-year-olds into a love of reading and writing. His eighth-grade English classroom is no ordinary room, his lessons not your typical syllabus. Yet no student has lived up to the promise of their potential more than Clara Hightower. A star pupil at St. George's Episcopal school, Clara spends the next three decades redefining the idea of prodigy. She is a high school genius in the 1990s, a Silicon Valley celebrity in the 2000s, and then, perhaps most surprisingly, an animal rights activist-turned-terrorist in the 2010s. But in order to tell Clara's story, Keating must tell his own. Now long retired from the classroom, he reflects on his own days at St. George's, his dashed dreams of writing and comedy, and the lasting relationships built with friends and former students. And, of course, his devastating stroke and the isolation that drove him to look back on his life and legacy. Told with humor and tenderness, Keating's documentation of Clara's life and all in her orbit, including himself, beautifully captures the unique privilege of true human connection. Dazzlingly original, The Optimists is part biography, part love-story, part joke book, and wholly a testament to anyone who has ever taught or been taught"--
