Gossip Girl meets 90210. Watching the first few episodes I saw every stereotype and High School TV show expectation splashed across the screen. Then I realized that the show itself knows that and starts making fun of itself. It is when I realized they weren't taking it too seriously, that I got serious about the show. Then the show gets darker and darker and actually becomes a contender for good TV. Thank you Josie and the Pussycats for the fun soundtrack addition. While Archie and Jughead fight over Betty and Veronica, I'm not sure if I'm lusting over Archie, Jughead or Kevin.
  
Kate has finally landed a job as a race car driver. Unfortunately, it's at the expense of the man she found murdered. With the police and gossip thinking she did it, Kate jumps in to find the real killer.

I felt the author was trying too hard to share her racing knowledge with us, and the result slowed the story down. Some of the characters were a tad under developed as well. Still, the climax was great and the solution was logical.
