Book Review: Gossip Girl

Alright, everyone. Time for my very first book review! I'm going to be reviewing the Gossip Girl series by Cecily von Ziegesar. :-)




First of all, I absolutely love this series. Like I said, there will always be a special place in my heart for The Hunger Games, but this series may be my second favorite!

At first, I honestly only picked up this book because I was out of reading material and I was in a hurry at the library. I took out the first two books, read them, and instantly wanted to read more. I've been heading to the library every other week and taking out the next three books each time and just reading them! Right now I'm currently reading Would I Lie to You?, which is the 10th book in the series, and there's still tons more to read!

And no, I don't watch the TV show. I was never big on stuff like that, because the shows are always different from the books (and the books, in my opinion, are always much better!).

So, instead of just talking about the first book, I'll review the whole series.

I was never really into the drama kind of stuff, but these characters (Blair, Serena, Nate, Chuck, Kati, Isabel, etc.) just caught my attention. They all have different personalities, but they're all basically extremely rich New York City kids. The adventures and drama that they get themselves into is incredibly interesting. I just can't pull myself away!

Literally. It's like some really bad addiction. 

But, yeah. The drama is very, very interesting, and the way that these upper-class kids live make you think a little. You'd think they'd get anything in the world, right? Wrong. You'll have to read the books to find out!

I think that you should be at least 13 to read this series, only because there are some topics discussed that younger kids shouldn't read. You gotta be a little bit mature for this series.

But other than that, the series is really great!

Now, if you excuse me, I'm going to get back to reading Would I Lie to You?
