Summary:Last year was just the beginning. Welcome to the inner circle.

Reed Brennan arrived at Easton Academy expecting to find an idyllic private school experience-challenging classes,adorably preppy boys,and a chance to create a new life for herself. Instead,she discovered lies,deception,blackmail,and...murder. But,thankfully,the killers were caught and the nightmare is finally over.

The Billings Girls are gone.

Now with a new school year ahead of her,Reed steps back on Easton`s ivy-colored campus ready to start over. So when the headmaster announces that Billings is forbidden from holding their traditional,secretive initiation,Reed is relived. She champions the new rules and the six new girls the administration has picked to live in Billings Hall: Constance,Missy,Lorna,Kiki,Astrid,and newcomer Sabine.

But Reed`s fellow Billings resident and new nemesis,Cheyenne Martin,believes the changes are a mockery of Billings history. Despite the new rules,Cheyenne vows to keep the old ways alive,no matter what-or who-stands in her way..

Summary: Wow. I literally just finished this book literally 10 minutes ago and I`m still speechless about it. The book doesn't take place right after the last one but in the new school year. Reed actually finally becomes like able. I always hated her after Private. But,in this book something about Reed changed.

I loved the idea of the plot. I would have probably read this in day or two but I was so busy! I had 4 tests today and 2 pop quizzes the day before that! The book was great my only complaints were the ending left me confused and I wished we got to know Sabrine,the new girl more. If you read the book why would Cheyenne do THAT? I mean,seriously and tell Reed that`s it`s all her fault? That's messed up. Other than that it was great.

Fat Cat by: Robin Brande

October,13 2009

You are what you eat. . . .

Cat smart, sassy, and funny—but thin, she’s not. Until her class science project. That’s when she winds up doing an experiment—on herself. Before she knows it, Cat is living—and eating—like the hominids, our earliest human ancestors. True, no chips or TV is a bummer and no car is a pain, but healthful eating and walking everywhere do have their benefits.

As the pounds drop off, the guys pile on. All this newfound male attention is enough to drive a girl crazy! If only she weren’t too busy hating Matt McKinney to notice. . . .

This funny and thoughtful novel explores how girls feel about their bodies, and the ways they can best take care of their most precious resource: themselves.

This book lookes so good! I can`t wait to read it!

Poor Kirsten!

First,it was Samantha and Nellie. Now,Kirsten is leaving us
too. Well,she`s going into the archives. I didn`t really like her but it`s still sad to see her go. I got the letter in the mail today because I used to go there when I was little. But,I`m still sad. Poor Kristen! I hope they won`t let any more dolls away! Well, at least for now.


Farewell Kristen

"I`m Hillari Kimble,she said.

Stargirl looked up. She smiled. She said,"I know."

"My birthday is tomorrow."

"I know."

Hillari paused. Her eyes narrowed. She jabbed het finger in Stargirl`s face. "Don`t try singing to me,I`m warning you."

Only those nearby tables heard Stargirl`s reply:"I won`t sing to you."

Hillari gave a satisfied smirk and walked off.

Summary: Sometimes the truth hurts...

Reed Brennan came to super posh Easton Academy to make a brand new life for herself. At first it seems as though her dream had come true-she was living in the ultra exclusive Billings Hall, hanging out with the all-powerful Billings Girls,and dating the very hot Thomas Pearson. But Thomas turned out to be different from what she thought...and then he turned up dead. And if that wasen`t twisted enough,Reed`s new boyfriend,Josh Hollis,was arrested for Thomas`s murder.

Now everyone is back to worrying about the regular stuff.like how to sneak into the boy`s dorms at night,whether two-ply cashmere is warm enough for fall,and whether to fly to London or Barcelona for Thanksgiving break.

Everyone except for Reed.

Reed is convinced that Josh is innocent,which means the killer is still out there. Now it`s up to Reed to uncover the truth. But the deeper she digs,the more secrets she unearths and the closer she gets to the confession that will change everything...if she`s alive to hear it.

Review: This book was awesome. Reed as usual was a bitch but by the middle of the book I liked her more. But I still don't like her. =)

Cheyenne really comes out in this book. In the first book all you know is that she is Reed`s sweet roommate. But in this book she REALLY comes out. I love Cheyenne. She has to be the nicest character in the series...until now. In this book,you are always guessing what she might do next.

Noelle I LOVE too. She is my favorite character. She is like your protective, nice older sister and also a bitch at the same time. I think they should make a series about HER. Man,why am I cursing so much?

The ending of this book was AMAZING. I just could not put it down. It was great. I cant wait to read the next one. Just make sure you read the books ahead of this first or else you will be VERY confused.

Summary: If Naomi had picked tails,she would have won the coin toss.

She wouldn`t have had to go back for the yearbook camera,and she wouldn`t have hit her head on the steps.

She wouldn`t have woken up in an ambulance with amnesia.

She certainly would have remembered her boyfriend,Ace. She might even have remembered why she fell in love with him in the first place.

She would understand why her best friend,Will,keeps calling her "Chief." She`d get all his inside jokes,and maybe he wouldn`t be so frustrated with her for forgetting things she can`t remember she can`t possibly remember.

She`d know about her mom`s new family.

She`d know about her dad`s fiancee.

She wouldn`t have to spend her junior year relearning the French she supposedly knew already.

She never would have met James,the boy with the with the questionable past and the even fuzzier future,who tells her he once wanted to kiss her.

She wouldn`t have wanted to kiss him back.

But she picked heads.



Review:This book was great. The characters were so relatible. Naomi was a great character that I could relate to. I also really loved Will. He and Naomi have to be my favorite characters of the book. James was your average messed up bad boy which you have to feel bad for. I liked James but he definitely wasn`t one of my favorites in the book.
In the beginning of the book I HATED Ace,but by the end of the book I liked him more. I also wished I could get to see more of Alice and Yvette,who I found funny at times. Another character I find funny was Chloe (Naomi`s step-sister) who made me laugh out loud.
This book was great but the ending left me questioning. It was open-ended basically and I wanted more. But overall,it was really good.
