Sophomore Switch

Tasha is filmed semi-nude while making out with a celebrity in a hot tub; however, "I didn't go all the way with him." Judging by the pictures of Tasha on her wall, Emily figures she is an "amateur lingerie model and table dancer." Sebastian breaks up with Emily because she won't sleep with him. Emily's roommate cheats on her boyfriend and scams on another girl's boyfriend. Tasha takes a freshman to the women's clinic for a morning-after pill when she confides that the condom broke during sex with her older boyfriend. Emily goes to Sam's room to make out; the next morning, she discovers that he added her to a list of "Psi Delt Doables" with a ranking and a picture of her asleep. A self-described "make-out slut" tells Emily that all college guys want is to "get laid." Emily kisses a boy she just met. Natasha bounces from guy to guy and hasn't gone a week "without hooking up since I was 15 and started filling out my tank tops." Natasha's "friends" are mean to her after they find out about Tubgate; one girl says, "Your too busy f--king any boy who shoves a drink in your direction to even think about somebody else." A boy she likes calls her a "fame-hungry whore" who is happy to "f-k anyone else who comes around." Upset, Natasha drinks too much at a club, dirty dances with a young man, then lets him "paw" at her chest. Emily says it's "not like we're going to pick up a guy and take him back for a threesome." Emily's ex-boyfriend slept with three different girls every week.

Some cursing, including "dumb ass," "hell," "f--k," "p---y," "frak," "s--t," "bitch."

Tasha is drunk when she gets half-naked with a guy in a hot tub; "naive and wasted, what a great combination." Tasha admits she chose "keg parties over studying." Emily drinks beer and Cuervo shots at a party. Boys play "beer pong" at a party. At another party, a group smokes shisha from a hookah pipe. Emily and Natasha get into a bar by flashing fake IDs.

Parents need to know this novel is about college students and features a fair amount of drinking and casual sex, as well as some profanity. However, on a scale with the Gossip Girl series, for example, it ranks lower because neither of the main characters have sex and they both learn to respect themselves.
