It is what it is. It's definitely no literary masterpiece. It's like comfort food: not substantial, but oddly addictive.

Unfortunately this was my first DNF. The characters were very similar to the original gossip girl characters:
-Beautiful blonde who loves to shop
-Popular bitchy brunette who is always up to something
- The ‘it’ couple who were together since kindergarten and are still ‘virgins’ planning to lose it to each other however the girl cheated on him in the summer
It didn’t feel like the writer put any effort into this book which was very disappointing and I don’t think I’ll finish the series but I like the books for the vibes. I was very bored reading it and found myself skipping alot of pages so I could get to the end but I just couldn’t make it.

Meet the Carlyles, a new trio to hit the Gossip Girl Scene! Owen, Avery and Baby! Get ready for the triple threat!
Owen, the testosterone of the three, is very hot and a swimmer (I like him already)! Envied in Nantucket by his player persona, he only has eyes for one girl. The girl of his dreams.
Avery. Poor Avery all this girl wants is to fit in! Is that too much to ask?! Her scheme of perfect attempts leaves her no better off than before, it isn’t until she really lets loose and things get a little crazy, that things start going her way.
Baby can’t wait to get kicked out of her snobby private school and have her mother send her back to Nantucket into the waiting arms of her stoner bf. She doesn’t find anything in New York worth sticking around for, that is until she meets J.P. Although he is as preppy as they come, he makes even her hippie heart skip a beat.
You know what I think about drama. So what was I thinking, picking up a book called Gossip Girl! Broadening my reading horizons! And guess what! I didn’t hate it! I dare to say that I even enjoyed it! I really liked getting to know the characters and getting to know their roles in the plot. Yes, I hated Jack, I mean who wouldn’t the girl is a biatch! Baby, Owen and J.P. are my favorites! I guess I must do okay with drama in small doses. I do have to say that I am a Gossip Girl virgin, I haven’t read any of the first series, so my review is a little bias due to that. So, if you were a big fan of the first series, I can’t tell you how this one will compare. All I know is, I will definitely be reading the next book You Just Can’t Get Enough coming out in October! I know, I don’t know what has come over me, it must be the sizzling weather!

This spin-off was not as good as the It-Girl, I expected it to be just as fun and nice as Gisspi Girl and It-Girl ~maybe even nicer~ but it wasn't. The story of 1 of the carlyle sisters was quite boring (I don't know the names anymore, I read them a long time ago, but I mean the hippie-Carlyle sister ;) ) jup this book series was quite a let-down :(

Enjoyed it very much . I considered it suitable for light reading series. Laughed at parts and got annoyed at other's but overall found the idea of triplets in same place lead different lives good to follow. Didn't read the first season of gossip girl so can't compare but hopefully I will enjoy it to .

The characters seem way too similar to Gossip Girl characters. I had a hard time keeping them straight because all I kept thinking of was the original GG characters. I don't think I'll continue with this series at this time.

Entertaining, but not as much as the others. The original characters are crazy and fun, but the new ones are a bit dull.
