The new book 'O.C. Undercover' was well worth the hype. The guide to the O.C. is amazing. Read about Josh Schwartz, the hottie that brought the O.C. to television. Read bios of the young stars in the show. Learn fun facts and little secrets about the stars. This book was great!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you're a fan of the show, BUY this book!, April 6, 2004

This review is from: O.C. Undercover: An Unofficial Guide to the Stars and Styles of The O.C. (Paperback)

I've been a big fan of THE O.C. since the first episode, and I'm especially a fan of Adam Brody and Mischa Barton. I've watched every episode and surf all the fan groups and I'm protective of this show, LOL. So when I read about this book in some teen magazines and saw it linked on some sites, I was worried that it would be a stupid rip-off book like they always do on these shows. This book is nothingl ike the typical TV show book. It's HILARIOUS, it has total love for the stars and the show and takes the subject seriously and it also has fashion stuff---it's like the best parts of having a magazine mixed with the best parts of having a book. It also has good photos. If you like the show, you will not be let down by this book. I have books on FRIENDS and LIZZIE McGUIRE and many others and this is my fave TV-show-related book so far, by a mile. The only problem is when they went to press, Adam & Rachel were not dating in real life yet, so his poor ex-GF is in it, LOL. Anyway, thank you, Brittany, for writing this. You rock!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and Straight to the point, April 17, 2004

This review is from: O.C. Undercover: An Unofficial Guide to the Stars and Styles of The O.C. (Paperback)

I loved this book. Ms. Kent is hilarious in many of her comments and observations. I, unlike some other people, didn't buy this book with hopes of getting a "travel guide" of Orange County. That's not the point of this book. It is a funny and witty account of the fabulous TV show that I love so much. I love the sections on the stars (Adam BRody is my fave!)and the pics! Great summer read!
