just girls post one million

So just like Claire said, I am pretty sure the theme of just girls is pretty clear after a plethora of blogs have been posted giving a description of what the book entails. The book is about middle school aged girls, and their social practices. Specifically, the book zones in on two groups, the “hard cookies” (the less cool/popular girls), and the “social queens,” (the popular girls). The book discusses social identity, the way these girls differ and perhaps why, and how they communicate. We have found many interesting and questionable things about the young girl’s cultures. It was interesting to get to take somewhat of a time machine trip or a walk down memory lane, and get to re-remember all of the lovely times that I had in junior high. It was just a blast. I felt this book was a pretty accurate cursor to the life of a 12 year old girl.
