This was so entertaining!!! It was jam packed with drama and I was hooked. It’s definitely a relic of the 90’s (and contains some problematic passages), but the overall message of women taking down their awful exes still resonates. I felt the characters leapt off the pages. If you grew up loving Gossip Girl, including the drama and glimpse into the life of “Manhattan’s elite,” this is for you. Can’t wait to watch the film!

It took me a little bit to get into it, then I couldn't put it down. The movie did not do this book justice at all.

Maybe it's just dated now, but there were a lot of horrifying aspects of this book. I get that there are many terrible characters, but sometimes it was a bit more than I was expecting. I also felt like this book was really slow. I'd say watch the movie instead, which isn't something I'd normally say.
