It's not really chicklit, but I didn't really want to make another shelf for this book.

To be honest, I don't know how a non Smithie, or even someone who didn't go to a women's college would relate to this book. I know I definitely enjoyed it because I could relate to something from every character, because I knew the ins and outs of Smith. If I had lived in King, it might have been too much (lol).

There were definitely a couple of things slightly off: it's molasses, not soy sauce that they use to deice areas of Smith. Well, okay, that's really the only one I can think of, but there were some steretypes I did want to fight (I lived on Green Street for two years and I still shaved, and I think pretty much everybody in my particular dorm did!) These might be stereotypes that have changed over time though.

I'm not sure I particularly liked one twist at the end. I don't want to reveal it, but I didn't entirely see it coming and I'm not sure if I was more disappointed in myself for not seeing it, or if I was more disappointed in the actual twist.

Anyway, would love to hear what other Smithies and non-Smithies thought of this book.
