the premise: a group of 20-something girls decide it would be fun to mail their favorite books to each other in an attempt to be well-read...it's like being pen-pals, only passing on a letter that was written by somebody else...

Pretty reputable magazine--one of the girls in my program is going to be published in it this summer.
