The crew heads off to Sun Valley to ski (with the Dutch Men's Olympic team!) and, as usual, Blair wrestles with losing her virginity, Nate likes Serena, Blair, and someone else, and Serena just wants to have fun.
I continue to read this, even though I'm philosophically opposed to most of it, just because it's so much fun!

This is the last book in the series I will be reading because its very, very dull. Cecily von Ziegesar is a terrible writer because the original Gossip Girls are not very good but The It Girls, written by a ghost writer are completely addictive which is why I might still consider reading The Carlyle's
A good, quick read, although not outstanding
Fun quick fast read. Mindless reading!
I Like It Like That is a wonderful because it has drama stories and serious stories, which makes it intersting. It is a great book to read fro fun!
I gave up on Gossip Girl at this point. Maybe I'll read more of the series one of these days, but I'm not buying the books anymore ;P
great fast - im ready for another!
