Welcome to Rush Week!

Dear Reader,

When my editor approached me about writing a juicy Bama Rush book, I was immediately on board. My mind went wild with the possibilities, and almost instantly Taylor, Brooklyn, Asana and Annabelle were knocking around in my head begging to be put on the page.

The timeline of this book is purposefully ambiguous. It does not take place 9 years ago -- TikTok wasn't a thing 9 years ago. The Read more of this blog post »

Dear Reader,

When my editor approached me about writing a juicy Bama Rush book, I was immediately on board. My mind went wild with the possibilities, and almost instantly Taylor, Brooklyn, Asana and Annabelle were knocking around in my head begging to be put on the page.

The timeline of this book is purposefully ambiguous. It does not take place 9 years ago -- TikTok wasn't a thing 9 years ago. The book starts out when RushTok became popular, and follows a timeline that surpasses our current calendar. As a historical writer in my other life, I'm very familiar with timelines and research, the latter of which I did extensively, the former of which I chose not to elaborate on.

Rush is a huge trend on TikTok and other socials. Schools from across the US post their dance routines and chants, and people flock to the pages to check out the latest OOTDs (outfits of the day), jewelry trends, how to wear makeup, and let’s be honest to hear the TEA. There’s no other school more popular than the University of Alabama, so much so they ended up having a documentary created about their rushing habits. But there are dozens of other sororities and schools that share their journeys as well.

While I played in this world with Taylor, Brooklyn, Asana and Annabelle, sharing their OOTDs, social media videos, friendship dramas, and juicy secrets in their “Spill Book”, all with fun and wild abandon, I also touched on some of the more serious things that occur during rush, in the Panhellenic lifestyle, as well as college life in general. I have nothing but respect for Greek life, and the many women who’ve shared their stories.

This book is in no way to be confused with any one person or place, and all the characters and plotlines were created by me and my editorial team. I did find inspiration however in the thousands of TikTok posts, YouTube videos, discussion forums, articles, documentaries, and my own experiences in college as well as those of my friends and family members. You can get lost on the interwebs with a single search.

I hope you enjoy the wild, juicy ride! Taylor, Brooklyn, Asana and Annabelle can’t wait to invite you into their world. Who’s ready for Rush Week?

Kisses,
Michelle ...more "
