I'm over halfway through the book...and almost totally disgusted. I don't think the boy drama at the Alpha Rho house really is significant in a book about sorority life. It's not anything unique to Greek Life. Independents also have boy drama. I wish Robbins had maybe focused a bit less on personal habits and more on aspects of these girls lives that are uniquely greek. She's acting as if these girls bad choices are made solely because they are greek.
I'm still not entirely sure that this book is based on the greek system at my school, but there are glimpses here and there. I think some of the details are universal to almost any large southern school.
