I need the first word on page 124 please.

Looks like I'll have to go to the library on my lunch break and check this book out again.

EDIT: Boo! I just checked w/ the online catalog and they don't have this in.

From her website: If you are a current or former sorority sister who would like to share stories with Alexandra Robbins, she welcomes your email. Please feel free to email her at robbinsbooks@gmail.com. Hmmm, I wonder how many emails she must get from sorority sisters, and how many of those aren't hate mail?

124, first word: "tiptoeing"
273, last word: "lifeguards"

deleted b/c I don't want to get sued.

If someone needs a different password, just post it here. I think there were about 6 different ones that it cycled through.

Thank you!

Guys... it's not a very good idea to post the contents of another website without obtaining permission. A small quote of it used for a review or in a post (giving credit where credit's due) falls under the "fair use" provisions of copyright laws.

Don't forget that Robbins is registered here on GC, don't assume she doesn't read the General Chat section.

how about the last words on pg. 101 or pg. 146....My co-worker still has my copy so I can't look them up. Anything interesting in there?

If you keep hitting refresh, it should cycle around to one of the ones that have already been posted.

I think Caitlin and Sabrina's "challenges" might be "trying not to kick the living @#$% out of Alexandra Robbins and gettting arrested for assault."

Th biggest problem with the book is that I didn't like the girls portrayed. They were really weak women. Virtualy pathetic.

It was like reading a story designed for 13 year olds and recomended by the some teen magazine.

Do y'all have sisters that bad?

I guess the stronger women told her to go pound sand?

What is all this talk about passwords and pages? What did I miss?

If you wanna read an update of what happened to some of the characters in the book Pledged, you need to have a hard copy of the book. (Bought, borrowed, stolen, whatever...)

To access the update, you need to enter a word (either the first or last word appearing on a certain page in the hardcover). It changes regularly.

Nothing much of interest, but I think that might be a preview of the future paperback edition's additional material.

anyone else ever curious about her lectures on sorority life? i'd like to see what she'd say if a sorority or a group of sororities hired her. the sadist in me is tempted....

I wonder if her 'sources' are reading this thinking 'OH ISHT! THAT'S ME!' Since she did it 'undercover'. I wonder if they would 'come out' and ask for a share of the profits or something.
