I thought the book was interesting, but I've never experienced anything her characters have. My GDI boyfriend is slightly more gullible, he thinks my sorority sisters will try to pressure me into breaking up with him "to have more fun". So silly!

To give my two cents...

I recently went through rush (ended last Friday actually) with my roommate who wasn't orgionally interested in Greek Life and was freaked out by the whole 'hazing' thing for most of the week of and leading up to. A friend of hers gave her the book and it did two things for us:

1.) Scare her even more (though not anymore since being with sisters)

2.) Make an awesome connection between some actives and us when we talked about it and then brought it to a girl we had been talking to just about everyday about hazing and the like...(apparently there's a whole chapter or at least a section about various kinds of 'rape' pledges might have to endure...hm)

Oddly enough our new chapter runs rampant in that book...very few things we read seemed accurate but most else was not at ALL.
