Book Review
I have just recently finished the book Notorious by Cecily Von Ziegesar. This is the third novel in the list of the "It Girl" series. These books add on to Cecily's previous series, "Gossip Girl". In Gossip Girl, Jenny Humphry is the quiet, slightly awkward freshman trying to earn a reputation of being wild and spontaneous. When Jenny transfers to a boarding school called Waverly Prep she becomes the one person she's dreamed of being her whole life. She's more outgoing, making cooler friends, guys flirt with her, and she enjoys all the new attention she is getting. Waverly is the school for the rich and famous, where your only as hot as your latest scandal. Jenny quickly catches on and is beginning to enjoy her time at Waverly. She had her two new best friends, her roommates, Callie and Brett, and she even had a little crush already. Until she finds out that her crush is her roommates ex-boyfriend. Then there are rumors that the infamous Tinsley Carmichael is returning to Waverly. Once she sees that Jenny has stolen her best friends, her room, and her popular lifestyle, you can't expect Tinsley too be kind to Jenny. Of course there are more problems in this book than just Jenny's drama. This book has it all, teacher affairs, parties, punishments, love, lust, and scandal. I would recommend this book to anyone you loves a dramatic tale.
