It's refreshing to know that only the spelling is accurate in the Pledged book. Seriously, I'm surprised it was published as non-fiction. I say this not to be cruel. Despite the fact it's inaccurate as I suspected, on a separate point it's written in the style of fiction, or at least the parts I read. The author thread was intriguing to say the least. Thanks for the links to other threads. I have to remember to do more research before posting. I appreciate your replies!

To a previous poster, I'm the Mom posting (no "split personality"). My daughter and her friends have questions, but not to the point of posting online as no one is rushing until they head off to college next year. Sometimes they'll ask me a question because they know I came from a very Greek school and I'll ask the question here out of curiousity. To be truthful, I suppose I'm also interested in GLO out of regret I was never able to rush after my Dad died immediately after I entered college as a freshman and I had to not only help my Mom for the new few years but also struggle to continue on with my college education (now that's honesty, but at least it shows where my interest lies). The financial aid at my college was generous, but I still had to make up 100% of the remaining monies due myself; thus, no sorority life.

When my daughter wants to post her own questions, I'll have her make her own user name. Is that what you meant?

Thanks again everyone! Reminder to self: Use the search function before posting
