One of us loved this book, and one of us really and truly did not, and that\u2019s what makes for a fun book club chat! Miss Brody is a progressive teacher at a rather formal and traditional girls\u2019 school, who\u2019s girls (the Brodie set) are being groomed to be the \u201ccr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me. \u201c She\u2019s in her prime, she\u2019s got two lovers on the faculty, she\u2019s influencing young minds. It\u2019s a story of love, hate, manipulation, and betrayal on several levels. It\u2019s dark, witty, funny\u2026or just plain awful. Depending on who you ask. If you read this book, we\u2019d love to know which side you come down on! Find us on IG and let us know! We\u2019re @75reads .
