October's Book and Date

Hi everyone,

October's book will be Pledged by Alexandra Robbins. This is a non-fiction book about a reporter that goes undercover and makes friends with a mixture of sorority girls. I think this would bring up some interesting issues and hopefully spark some healthy debates.

I have picked Tuesday, October 8th for the date.  I will also be sending out an Evite in the next few days.

    I can't wait to read this since I was in a Sorority...we should definitely have some interesting discussions!

    Please note I changed the date to October 8th. All the other weeks were pretty busy with:
    APPTA meeting, Dad's Night out, Dad's Poker night, New Member Social, and a BABES meeting. I hope the 8th isn't too early.

    Oh my... this book sucks. It's bringing back all those BAD Alpha Phi memories that I have apparently blocked. I don't think I'm going to make it through the whole book...

    OK. I'm having trouble with this book too. I was also in a Sorority, but it was nothing like the book is saying. There were no drugs, eating disorders, etc.... There was a lot of drinking, yes. But that is what most college students are doing I think. It is bringing back some memories, but most of it I don't connect with. Of course, I didn't live in a rich sorority house either like the girls in the book!

    I have actually enjoyed reading this book. I was not in a sorority, so this is pretty interesting. It seems, though, with some of the posts that real sorority life is not like what is in the book...should be interesting to discuss with all of you!

    At some points this book really is boring; I enjoy the part where she talks more about each girl rather then all the scientific stuff she puts in. I was never in a Sorority either but after reading this book, I would have loved to just be in one for a year. Maybe I can be a house mom?
