Loved this book. The stories from the rich side of the fence will make you want more. More scandals, more bubbly and more Miami. The cast of characters will keep you turning the pages to see what they get into next.

I received an ARC copy of Pink Glass Houses and I was interested in this book because it was compared to Big Little Lies which I loved. The story is set in Miami and focuses on Sunset Academy which is supposedly one of the best public elementary schools in the area. I love the story is told from each of the mothers perspectives and they also elaborate on the challenges they face trying to fit in or not fit in to this group of affluent moms. I have never heard of a PTA where donations start at 20,000 can you say outrageous!! I like this book also sends a message about how trying to fit in does not stop when you leave school these mothers are worried about how they are viewed and will do anything in their power to stay at the top even if it comes with sacrifices. I enjoyed seeing how the characters developed throughout the story and some finally realized all that glitters is not gold and what is most important in their lives. Definitely a page turner as well as a plot twist.

I really enjoyed Pink Glass Houses by Asha Elias! It was a quick easy and entertaining read! Would recommend! Thank you to NetGalley, William Morrow and Asha Elias for the opportunity to read this ARC.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book with complex characters. Every dual POV was well written and relatable. There was never a clear villain mom and I liked that. The plot flowed really well, despite the ending becoming a little ambiguous.

Once I started reading, I couldn’t stop. Following the story from each person’s perspective really made this story enjoyable. The authors writing style was one that I thoroughly enjoyed; it kept me wanting more. I was able to get a good idea of what these characters would look like, what their homes would look like, their children, etc. The author did a great job at putting you in the Miami high society scene.

Thank you, NetGalley for allowing me to read this ARC.

Who doesn't love a wealthy school mom's cat fight?
Asha Elias creates a glamorous and hilarious satire of the PTA in a small private school in Miami seductive social satire about the wealthy PTA moms of an elite middle school in Miami Beach. Melody Howard is a midwest transplant trying to fit in but ends up making enemies rather quickly. The PTA in a wealthy school is no joke and Melody starts looking for friends to boost her up.

If you love Pretty Little Liars or any domestic thriller you will devour this book. Elias provides sharp commentary and crisp descriptions as well as a dramatic narrative that will keep you turning the pages. I just loved it and so will you! #PinkGlassHouses #AshaElias

Sunset Academy in Miami Beach is a public school pretending to be an exclusive private one. Back-to School Nights with PTA donations starting at $20,000? Designated donor parking? Birthday parties for nine year olds with a D.J.? Halloween extravaganzas? It’s all at Sunset and it’s all organized by a PTA clique, led by lead fundraiser Charlotte Giordani. Small town Kansas is about as far away from these over-the-top happenings as you can get and that’s where new PTA mother Melody Howard is from. At first she’s amazed by Sunset and hopes her daughter will fit in. Then she’s sucked in by the competition (parties! restaurants! shoes! handbags!) and running for PTA President against Charlotte. She’s urged on by lawyer Darcy Resnick who has her own problems with the Sunset PTA regime. Both wonder why wealthy socialites Don and Pamela Walker make such large donations to the school. Who checks on how that money is spent? And why are so many children in the gifted program anyway?

Pink Glass Houses is a delightful, fun read. Told by multiple narrators, we watch the slow unrolling of disaster as each woman realizes what is most important in her life. Hint: It’s not the PTA. All characters are well described, especially Melody who has to adapt to Miami dress, weather and morals. It’s hard to believe this is a first novel! 5 stars.

Thank you to NetGalley, William Morrow and Asha Elias for this ARC.
