From the time she was old enough to understand English, college sophomore Malloy Murray has heard and seen the rites and customs of Beta Gamma Pi Sorority. Her mother, the National President and her godmother live, and breathe for the lavender and turquoise. Much to Malloy’s dismay they want the same for her. Malloy’s resentment of the sorority stems from the fact her mother has always put the sorority before Malloy's happiness. Anger propels her to pledge but her heart is not in it. A series of events have Malloy rethinking the bonds of sisterhood.
THE WAY WE ROLL was a compelling story of life on a college campus and dealing with the aspects of college beyond education. The characters were real, the tension, hurt, pain and happiness they felt seeped from the pages as if these things were happening to me. I was the roommate, the soror, the mothers, and the stalker. College drama was at an all time high throughout the novel, coming to an amazing ending, with each character coming to a greater understanding of faith, sisterhood, love and belief in God.
THE WAY WE ROLL is the second book in the Beta Gamma Pi series by Stephanie Perry Moore. I am looking forward to book number three and I have ordered book number one to read.
