Summary

Lucy tries so hard to be good. She was always a good student, tries to be a good friend, a good citizen, a good feminist, and now she wants a lover who will give her a good beating, preferably after tying her up. 
Dating swings from the sublime to the humiliating, but then Lucy hooks up with someone who challenges her to pursue the writing career she has been letting idle. When she discovers a teen magazine from the 1970s, it sparks her imagination and her life finally seems to come into focus; but as she learns more about how women were treated behind the scenes, she has to decide what to do. How to be true to herself, as chaotic as she believes herself to be; how to be good to those around her; how to survive as a young woman in the still messy media culture of 2015. 
Surprising, sexy, and hilarious, Good Girl is a thoughtful and endearing portrait of a young woman unsure of what she’s supposed to want from a world where the rules keep changing.

    The Odell Buckenflush Chronicles are river tales gathered from a career in outdoor education. Experiential learning is combined with humor to highlight environmental impacts and consequences. While the tales are humorous, each carries a lesson for those exploring the outdoors. 
    These stories serve as fun examples for outdoor leaders, teachers, camp counselors, and resource managers, making the book both educational and entertaining. After all, outdoor educators specialize in “edutainment.” 
    In the Chronicles, decisions must be made, leading to consequences and lessons. As Paul Petzoldt noted, people often need help understanding experiences to avoid repeating mistakes. These tales offer many examples of “what just happened.” 
    While not a deep dive into learning theory, the book shows different learning styles. As humorist Will Rogers said, “There are three kinds of people: those who learn by reading, those who learn by observation, and those who have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.” Odell does the “peeing”—you just enjoy the stories! 
    Each of the five volumes follows the same structure, featuring forty-eight tales across four chapters:Inventions and AchievementsFamily ConnectionsRescue and SurvivalPhilosophy and Life 
    At the end of each tale, a “Tale of the Tale” section explains the real-life inspiration. 
    A Glossary of River Terms adds both accuracy and humor. Multiple appendices cross-reference:Rivers and locationsPreviously published talesOutdoor experience subjectsBuckenflush characters 
    Dr. Odell Buckenflush isn’t one real person, but a blend of real folks, imagination, and folklore. You might even recognize yourself in these adventures.
