I recently just finished the book...well almost, the end really made me laugh when she wrote the check list of how to re-vamp sorority life....

I have several issues with the book, I won't go into them because many people have posted the same ones. My only comment is this: If you take away the greek letters, this book is just a book about the lives of four COLLEGE women. The alcohol, the drinking games, the parties, the sex, the screwed up relationships with guys, and even hazing (sports teams haze as well as lots of other types of clubs and organizations). The described experiences are common. The author just slapped greek letters on it to make it sell more.

And honestly, lots of facts were completely wrong and I find it hard to believe that some college age women would share such horrifying and personal stories of rape and abuse to anyone in the general public, especially if they knew they were talking to a journalist.
