About:
**If you're planning to come to the book club, it might be wise to locate a copy of the book asap as you may have to order it online http://www.amazon.co.uk/Queen-Bees-And-Wannabes-boyfriends/dp/0749924373/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1357579717&sr=8-1 **

As a follow up to Bossypants, we'ved decided to read the book which was the basis for Tina Fey's Mean Girls. You can watch the trailer below.

Here's some info about the book:

"When Rosalind Wiseman first published Queen Bees & Wannabes, she fundamentally changed the way adults look at girls’ friendships and conflicts–from how they choose their best friends, how they express their anger, their boundaries with boys, and their relationships with parents. Wiseman showed how girls of every background are profoundly influenced by their interactions with one another."

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

I'm impressed, I must say. Very rarely do I come across a blog that's both informative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you've hit the nail on the head. Your blog is important; the issue is something that not enough people are talking intelligently about.
