People reviewer Carol Peace says, "Smith's expertly crafted first novel has been a prepublication sensation . . . And no wonder; its premise is irresistible." So support your classmate and drop by the bookstore or maybe wait for the movie?

I ran into two former soccer players in the stands as I watched the Dartmouth soccer team's unfortunate loss to Harvard on Home-coming weekend. Matt Mcllwain is enjoying Atlanta as a consultant for McKinsey (though he missed the photo-op for the recent Fortune cover story on his employer). ScottSanford has opted for the entrepreneurial way to the top by opening a laundry and drycleaning service in his hometown of Toronto. I also briefly ran into Sloan Anders and Anne Funk, both living and working in Washington, D.C. Saturday was a chilly, drizzly day which sent me running for shelter, but there seemed to be a great turnout at the young alumni tent after the football team trounced the Crimson. Hope you all had a ball!
