it was alright. i loved the original gossip girl and the new series is not that great. it feels more of the same of the original but worse. usually i finish the books in one day and wanting more but with this book it took a while to finish and skimmed over some things. the book is good but not as good as what i anticipated

The Carlyle triplets are back in the spotlight and shaking up Manhattan.
Baby's decided that Manhattan looks good right now, and that includes J.P. With that decision made, she has to worm her way back into the heart of Constance Billard. All she has to do is revive the school's art magazine. Will her bohemian ways match the artsy direction of the magazine and push her further away from the elite crowd?
Avery's busy with board meetings with ladies at least fifty years older than she is. The almost daily meetings consists of gossip and very little else. It's hard to imagine that Avery's almost friendless, but will the last remains for her reputation be shot now that the word is out that she's never had a boyfriend?
Owen's having his own love troubles. He's still hung up on Kelsey, but since Rhys adores her, he's trying to stay away from her. But sooner or later, they're going to have to confront their emotions.
The scandalous secrets flow from the new socialites and they'll do almost anything to stay on top. How far is too far?
This is one series that will grab your attention and not let go.

It doesn't seem like the Carlyle triplets Avery, Owen and Baby have only been in Manhattan for only a week. They haven't even begun to make their mark despite the party that managed to get the cops called and Avery taken to the police station. But not everything is smooth sailing for the triplets, Baby's trying to get back in the good books at Constance Billard, Avery's already got one frenemy in Jack, and Owen's trying to get over Kelsey, who just happens to be the ex-girlfriend of one of his good friends from the swim team. What will happen if Rhys finds out that Owen's the real reason Kelsey broke up with him?
The Carlyles are a great addition to the Gossip Girl series. I have to say I'm partial to Owen and Baby. Jack's the perfect bad girl, out to oust Avery from her inner circle of friends but with Avery knowing the truth about her financial situation, Jack is practically being blackmailed till the truth comes out and then Jack is hopeful it'll send Avery out of Constance Billard, out of Manhattan and straight out of New York. I loved Owen having to struggle with the fact he's interested in Kelsey, but knowing Rhys is still into her as well. The swim team scenes with Owen and Rhys are actually some of my favorite in the book.

Much to my surprise the triplets are a refreshing change from the original characters---don't get me wrong the originals are fabulous and I too wonder what it would be like to follow them to college. Having said that I find an increased sense of humor in some of the descriptions of the never ending adventures and details to the brand of Manhattan and of the powers that be in the Constance Billard School. The episodes of the triplets are great and I can't wait for more.

Let me start by saying I'm well over the target audience age for this book, but as someone who volunteers with teens, I like to know what they're reading--especially when it's a series that's become such a cultural phenomenon. That said, these books are frothy, escapist fun. This book is the second to follow the Carlyle triplets as they navigate the complicated social maze of the Upper East Side. The outsiders perspective is refreshing as it pulls back the gilded curtain into the monogrammed, designer-clad, and scandalous lives of the world of the teens who attend Constance Billard School for Girls and St. Judes School for Boys while Gossip Girl and her wink-wink, nudge-nudge asides give the series its glossily addictive sheen. I'l admit, I'm totally hooked!!
