Jasmine (pikakejazz) | 140 comments This was on my bookshelf for quite a while and I finally got around to it. I have some thoughts, but not many....
My review here.

Angela | 389 comments Goodreads synopsis:

In the spring of her final year, Madeleine Hanna has enrolled in a semiotics course 'to see what all the fuss is about'. She falls in love with Leonard Bankhead - charismatic loner and college Darwinist - who introduces her to the ecstasies of immediate experience. Then Mitchell Grammaticus resurfaces, and wants her to be his wife.

I read this for 2019’s Week 37: a book set in a school or university. I really loved it. The characters were very realistic and endearing, and the storyline gets the reader very involved. A wonderful read.
