Since a number of people have brought it up . . .

Recounting conversations verbatim that she might not have even been present for or would have to recall later is par for the course for "creative nonfiction," which is how she set up the Alpha Rho/Beta Pi sections. So please, stop complaining about it -- it's completely accepted within the writing world. However, do take what she writes in those sections with a grain of salt.

I have a question though. When I read the book, I was under the impression that Caitlin/Sabrina/etc. KNEW that Ms. Robbins was undercover and writing a book, it was simply the other girls in the houses that didn't. I think I read an interview that backs this up . . . However, everyone on GC seemed to think that she had been one hundred percent undercover -- maybe I just skimmed over the part where she mentioned this in the book? Somebody help me out here.
