The Episode Review
The Sex Lives of College Girls continues to be a gripping series, with all the ladies in it struggling with their personal lives. This installment features Leighton, who is still fixated on Kappa. It is interesting to see her get more and more frustrated with her life, as well as her friends. However, underneath her perfect exterior is a heart of gold.
It’s Leighton and Whitney who have the most potential for character growth in this season. With Whitney, I think the breakup with Canaan is one of the better things that could have happened to her. So far, this season has been about pushing herself and discovering her hidden talents. This development could be a big part of that arc.
Bela’s storyline is the most entertaining in the book. It seems like she and Eric are going to have a lot of fun with some friendly sabotage, but it’s possible that they might take it too far.
