“Well, the drama is back for book two in the series. This one is a bit less absurd than the last. Blaire continues to struggle with bulimia and her mother’s coming marriage. Chuck is almost entirely absent, which is a major plus. Most of the teens head off to Brown or Yale for college interviews, most of which go spectacularly badly. Lots of changing love interests, cheating and lying.”

“I thought this book was ok. Its about a group of friends trying to get in to collage but its not working out. They go though a lot a brake ups and cheating. Everyone seemed to know everything about everyone. One of the girls was cought stealing just because she wanted to be popular. This wasnt the best book I have ever read but it wasnt the worst.”

“I just read this off a whim. It's not some amazing book that will change your life (god I hope not), but it's not horrible.”

“Book 2 in the gossip girl books is good as well. In this book you realy get to know Serena and Blair. You also get to see the drama unfold between Blair and Nate.”

“College interviews, romantic troubles and a fancy wedding photographed for Vogue dominate this second installment of von Ziegesar's frothy but fun series about rich Manhattan prep school kids and the gossip Web site tracking their lives. Blair Waldorf's mother is marrying her "seriously tacky" boyfriend on Blair's birthday and has chosen the bulimic overachiever's former best friend Serena as a bridesmaid (Blair will be maid of honor). Meanwhile, "hunky" Nate avoids Blair (he's secretly seeing chesty Jenny Humphrey), and the compounded stress makes her act like a "freakshow" during her Yale interview. Blonde bombshell Serena is disturbed by poet Dan's intense affections, struggles through her own interview at Brown and scores first prize in a school film contest. The plot culminates at the wedding, where the girls' boy troubles come to a head. As with her Gossip Girl, von Ziegesar creates a complete world: the characters get drunk, shop and indulge in spa treatments plus, the film contest prize is two tickets to Cannes. While this is still strictly a guilty pleasure, the story lines are better developed in this volume and the characters show more growth. But it's their outrageous lifestyles and antics and the snide omniscient narrator that will keep readers turning the pages.”

“I've only read the Gossip Girl books (well, two of them so far) because my 9th grade girls keep loaning them to me. But they're actually pretty good. Clever even. And quick - so I don't mind putting a day or two into reading one.”
