Tajuana
[TJ] Butler's ripe novel Sorority Sisters...lifted the veil on life
on line...Not since Spike Lee's School Daze and the much loved sitcom A Different
World has the Black experience on campus been this intriguing and, at times,
funny.
-ESSENCE
Butler
writes a very engaging story about five African American college women struggling
with campus life and the rigors of pledging ... Each woman matures to confront
her insecurities through sheer determination to survive not only the pledging
process but also the rite of passage between friends and the unique bonds
of sorority sisterhood.
-BOOKLIST
...
Butler's approach to the issues surrounding sororities and fraternities, sex
and relationships, friendships and sisterhood, are all genuine and down to
earth. Sorority Sisters is a relaxing read that offers a trip down
memory lane for some and a heads-up for others.
-BLACK ISSUES BOOK REVIEW
...
Tajuana TJ Butler scores big with this effort. Serious subtexts involving
STDs and loyalty never come across as preachy. Butler keeps her prose light
and entertaining, making Sorority Sisters an enjoyable page turner.
-HONEY MAGAZINE
Sorority
Sisters expamines the issues facing women walking a tightrope between
their teen years and adulthood. The author's vivid descriptions made me identify
with the women's struggle and I felt their emotions keenly. And the fact that
the author provided a peek into the pledge process of African-American sororities
made the book even more tasty.
