What looks like just another reality site... probably is! Bookworm Bitches contains the stories of supposed poor college girls who just can't make the grade without doing a little extra credit for the professor. While the gimmick is cheesy beyond belief, I do enjoy the domain name for a good laugh!
Their site is setup in (surprise) typical reality style as well. Each row contains a new girl with a blurb about her, and links to her photo and video sets. Looking through some of the thumbnails, this site could just as easily be called BitchesWithGlasses.com, as apparently all females that attend any type of educational institution (even after hours just to fuck their teacher) absolutely MUST wear glasses. Aren't I the observant one today?
The photos section nine times out of ten is just screen caps from the video. That seems like a bit of a cop out to save time. There are just a couple sets that have a link to "hi rez images" which are actually pretty nice amateur photos. These are huge at 1500x1000! It's too bad all the sets don't have these. Otherwise, the pics are standard crappy screencap quality, at a full 720x486 or something weird.
The videos are obviously a bit better, but still nothing too exciting. They usually have both an MPG and a Windows Media option, which are both broken down into 6-7 clips per scene. Video quality is ok, but nothing special. Even at double size, you start to see some artifacts from sub par video. The MPGs are 320x240, while the Windows Media sometimes goes up to 400x300 (encoded just under 500kbps). The numbers sound better than the video actually looks for some reason. Again, I just found this section to be nothing very special. The scenes are only slightly interesting, while the forced dialog tends to get in the way.
As far as this site goes, that's about all they have to offer. There aren't a huge number of scenes available, and there's no dates or schedule available to know how often they update (I'd assume not too often). You do get access to their other sites, most notable would be SoCalCoeds. Other than that, I don't think this site alone is worth the $25 monthly they want to charge. Honestly I think it'd be better content for a plugin or something as you don't see a lot of effort in the site here. Check out SoCalCoeds (which we also reviewed) which would be the main benefit of joining here in my opinion.

Well, at least the amount of content has grown a bit. That seems to be about all that's changed around here. The site still needs a bit of an update if you ask me, in design especially. I checked out some episodes, and the quality isn't as bad as I made it out to be before. I'm glad to see more scenes up, but I still say the other sites in the network are more worth the membership cost than this one is. Maybe in time if it continues to grow it will be a little more worthwhile.
Score increased from 73.6 to 76.3.

Wow, this is quite a large site now that they have for themselves. With 130+ episodes up, it's a big site by most any reality-site's standards. Much looks the same otherwise here. Updates have been regular which have helped fuel the growth. Quality could stand to be bumped up just a bit here to keep up with the newer sites out there, but overall it's not a huge issue. The large exclusive collection here of unique content makes it all worthwhile and worthy of a look, especially with the decent network you have as bonus access as well.
Score increased from 76.3 to 78.5.
