โฆ Synopsis
Rose OโConnell is barely surviving. Her marriage is rocky; her son isnโt fitting in at his new school, the prestigious Woolf Academy; and their tiny apartment in a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood can barely contain her family. As she struggles to make ends meet on her junior bank teller wages, Rose finds that life as the only mom in a name tag and uniform at the Woolfโs shiny school gates isnโt easy.
Not so for those in the elite and secretive Circleโa tight-knit group of wealthy mothers, led by the charismatic and glamorous Amala Kaurโwho rule the school. When the mysterious death of one of the Circleโs members creates a vacancy, Rose dares to hope she could fill it and transform her life.
Amalaโs shocking decision to invite Rose into her clique provokes resentment among the Circle, especially when her fortunes, self-esteem, and status start to soar. But Rose soon realizes the true price of being on the inside. Far from being a dream come true, the Circle proves her worst nightmare. Unlike the woman she replaced, can Rose escape with her life?
Taut, complex, and compulsively readable, Such a Good Mother is a razor-sharp take on the myth of having it all.
