Going Monstering by Edward Lee
2.0
Mostly gross-out humour. There is a purpose to all of it and the feeling of unease regarding the fate of our characters proves to be correct, but it does feel rather pointless. "Misfit girls join prestigious sorority and have to do weird things" is also the premise of "National Lampoon's Pledge This!", on imDB's list of worst films ever. Not that the premise is automatically a fail, and replacing the Paris Hilton vehicle from 2006 with the Edward Lee version would no doubt have improved it, but even so "Going Monstering" is a bit of a clunker.
What is more annoying is that I've read some excellent work by him (I won't necessarily name names as YMMV). I gave it two stars because the characters are ok and the narrative voice is good - and that's once again irritating because he's a good writer.
