didn't apply to me..

I just finished reading the book (well, except for her advice at the end... maybe ill get to that later) and while it was an interesting read, i feel like it did not apply to my sorority experience AT ALL.

I do not go to a big state school, greek life is not that intense at my school, we do not have sorority houses, we do not have serenades, and sororities (at least mine) do not haze AT ALL. (they can "suggest" that we wear our pledge pins, but they cant tell us to.. and innocent stuff like scavenger hunts would even be considered hazing here).

I guess I'm a little confused about her information -- did she follow these girls around everywhere? (if so, how did she pretend to be an alum or whatever for 2 different sororities on the same campus without blowing her cover?) also, wouldn't these 4 girls and/or their friends realize what happened when the book was published?

also, where did she get all of the ritual information? did random girls just go around telling her this or did she just make it up/find it online? i wonder if any of it is even accurate..

overall, this book read like a novel... FICTION. the "secrets" part just seemed really out of place, and was unnecessary.
