5.0 out of 5 stars A GUY WHO THINKS THIS IS A HOT, COOL BOOK, September 21, 2004

By	A Straight Guy "Ian" (Philly) - See all my reviews

I'm a guy and my girlfriend couldn't get her nose out of this book so as a joke I started to read it. And it's really good. Seriously, I learned more about girls from this book than from any girl I ever talked to. It's like getting the inside scoop. Plus it's hilariously funny. The snarky girls are such bee-yutches ya gotta laugh. But I know girls just like this chick Cammie who are so hot that no matter what they do, guys pant after them anyway. The main character Anna is very well written and reminds me of my gf (no I'm not just saying that because she's reading over my shoulder). All in all, a fun, cool book, easy read, and Zoey Dean has a wicked sense of humor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blonde Ambition rocks :), August 31, 2005

By	Imaginary Flower "Amicia" (Toronto) - See all my reviews

Blonde Ambition the 3rd installment to the A-list series is the best book in the book out of all three. Characters personalities are being discovered more which I love with a well done plot.

We get too see more of Django which we haven't seen since the first book and he is just so laid-back & enigmatic which I just love. I'm glad Ms. Dean finally got rid of Ben, because honestly I couldn't care less about him. I love the friendship that Anna & Sam and I love Sam ever more.

Cammie a character I couldn't care less about was finally given some depth without taking out her 'caminess' something I longed for. The addition of Mia her new stepsister helped defines Cammie's personality along with Adam and I can't wait to see more of these characters.

Dee is still the flaky blonde girl with little use in the book and I find her pretty useless to the already fantastic cast.

Near the end where Patrice (Cammie's stepmom), Mia & her father confront her about what she did to Hermosa Beach was well-done, especially with Cammie having the last line.

In conclusion this book was fun with finally getting rid of Ben, Cammie becoming more human, Sam and Anna's growing friendship, Adam becoming more involved with the cast and the addition of Mia.

Ciao

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best One Yet!, March 12, 2005

By	C. Cornell "tennischic42" (PA, USA) - See all my reviews

I have liked the A-list series from the moment they hit the shelves. Granted, they aren't the best books for teens you will find out there, but they are enjoyable and good, light reads.
The first book was good, and the second was a little slow, but Blonde Ambition is probably the best in the series so far.
In this book, Anna continues with an intership at Apex, Cammie gets a new stepsister, Sam's dad gets a guest role on the new series Hermosa Beach, and Dee looks for love.
As compared to the other books in the series, in Blonde Ambition the characters are much more developed. You see a softer side of Cammie that was invisible in the other books. Anna, however, becomes a little less likeable. But the plot holds your intrest and makes you want to read on!
Overall, this book was great. Certianly not a new classic, but great for teens who are fans of the Gossip Girl and A-list series! :)
