A Journal for Jordan/Pledged:The Secret Life of Sororities

I finally had time to finish A Journal for Jordan! I have to say, even though I already knew the end of the book, I definitely wasn't prepared for how sad it was. The end is a little bit frustrating at times because the author doesn't really provide a lot of resolution, but I guess it makes sense because she still doesn't have closure from Charles' death. Even with the sad ending I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to read something meaningful, that's also a great story.
I just started reading a new book that is also pretty interesting, if not a little bit inappropriate for school. It's called Pledged: The Secret Life of Sororities by Alexandra Robbins. The author went undercover at a college in the south, which she calls State U to protect the sororities. She talks about the things that go on behind the closed doors of the sororities, behind the scenes kinds of things. Some of the things in the book aren't exactly school appropriate but the author doesn't generally dwell on them, and most of the book is about the relationships in the sororities, not the bad things some of the girls do. So far it's a pretty good book and I would recommend it, especially if you are thinking about joining a sorority someday.
