Girls & Sex: Navigating the Complicated New Landscape
by Peggy Orenstein
I read this book to sprinkle in some non-fiction in my monthly reading lineup. I enjoyed this book, but I think it would be more beneficial for mothers or motherly figures for adolescent girls. I did skim through a couple chapters, but it was interesting to read about statistics on college campuses (since ursinus is a little different from the big 10 lol). I was intrigued at how willingly the girls she interviewed were to telling their stories, that takes a lot of courage, and that cannot go unnoticed. Some of the big topics she discussed did not surprise me though, and made me sad :(
