Huh

I'm crying right now with that ending. The Cavars covering them as they went in the pool. If that's not love...

I really didn't get the Kyon thing. You had Trey, girl! WTF is wrong with you! I am still 100% Team Trey so that whole Kricket and Kyon thing really didn't gel with me, hence it only getting 4 instead of 5 stars.

The It Girl series follows Gossip Girl character, Jenny Humphries at her new boarding school, Waverly. The sophomore must navigate an entirely new set of social rules in her attempt to become New Jenny - an it-girl. But life at Waverly isn't always what Jenny dreamed for herself and sometimes it's so much better.

Overall, the book is enjoyable in a simple, YA, guilty read way. It's not going to win any literary awards, but if you enjoy books about privileged kids, boarding schools or volatile relationship dynamics you will like this read. Although it is fiction, sometimes I am astounded by the level of debauchery surrounding these students.

The first book, It Girl, introduces us to the large cast of characters. New girl, Jenny, who is looking to reinvent herself. Junior class prefect, Brett, who seems to have it all together. Privileged princess, Callie, who thinks appearances are everything. True it-girl, Tinsley, who is the puppet-master of Waverly. As well as all their girlfriends and the rotating batch of potential boyfriends.

School seems perfect - the guy she has her eye on seems to be crushing back, her roommates seem great and she's been invited to join the advanced art class. What could go wrong? {{spoiler}}Tinsley returns to school and is none too happy about the new girl in her bed.

I dunno anymore. It would kinda seem wrong for him to leave his girlfriend when she seems to be taking her parents divorce and her dad's remarrying so hard but at the same time it is VERY obvious that he cares for our girl...what to do, what to do?

Off to start Volume 5
