Series: The It Girl
Genre: Teen
Review:
This fifth installment to the It Girl series starts up right where Unforgettable left off. The students are dreading the disciplinary action that Dean Marrymount will take for the burning of the Miller farm at the last party.
First of all, let me state that this series is a guilty pleasure of mine. :) The writing isn't too particularly intricate. Nor is the plot all that stunning. Basically the It Girl series are quick soap operas about Waverly Acadamy. By this book, all the characters have established their own dramas. The only person I could care less for is Alison merely because she's so minor.
Honestly, after everything that happened in the previous book, this one was kind of lacking. It was a good follow-up though. It shows how Jenny and Julian as well as Callie and Easy are growing and tearing apart as couples. Also, I was kind of disappointed in Brett and Kara. It was a bit nifty that there was a lesbian couple. I mean, it was different and gave the characters new challenges to work with. However, and here's a bit of a spoiler, but Kara makes out with Heath and they end up being a couple. It was so wash-out and too smooth. Brett did HAVE feelings for Kara, she took it really easy that Kara dumped her which I feel isn't very realistic.
I'm glad to see Brandon getting to be more tolerable. I always find him very whiny. However, he too got over his heartbreak with Elizabeth (from book 4) very quickly.
This book also introduces us to Chloe and Sam two 8th graders, "Prospectives" of Waverly for next year. Chloe becomes Tinsley's spy and Sam is a mini-Heath. I liked Sam, I thought he was adorable, yet Chloe wasn't a very strong character. She was sent by Tinsley to spy on Jenny in order to frame her for the fire.
Tinsley is just pure evil in this book and by the end of it I hated her, in a good way. :)I don't know if we're suppose to like Callie or not, but the way she is characterized I don't like her and I honestly can't see what Easy sees in her.
Overall, it's a great chapter in the It Girl Series. For those drama-lovers out there it's a good and juicy read. I can't wait to see what happens to the Waverly Owls next. :)
