Addictive series, December 15, 2011
This review is from: The A-List (Paperback)
When I came across this book, I didn't think I would like it. Boy was I wrong. I fell in love with this series and my love all began with reading this book. If you want to read a really good series of books, then The A-list is for you. It is a book that includes the typically plots like love, jealousy, and lots of drama!

Book Nerds Review, November 19, 2009
This review is from: The A-List (Paperback)
The A-List is what one would call a guilty pleasure. I first read it sometime shortly after high school, and remembered liking it a lot - why I didn't pick up the second book at the time, I have no excuse for except that maybe it was because I wasn't TOO much into reading then. (Got in trouble a lot my first year for reading in class, so.. I stopped reading...) However, I re-read it last week and I cannot wait to get the second, third, fourth, and 5-10th book/s. In fact, I can't wait so much I spent two of my Mooch points mooching the 2nd & 3rd books (sadly, there is no sign of the 4th book!).
If you manage to get into The A-List, at 256 pages, it turns into a very fast fun read. The plot is somewhat unique, and the characters are somewhat cliche. You have Anna who is the typical good girl, tired of her good girl life, so she sets off for LA, which I'm guessing she expects won't be so.. good girlish. And then you have Cammie who is the typical get-in-my-way-and-i'll-eat you bad girl, Sam and Dee who are the slightly ditsy following of Cammie, who are also `bad girls' BUT with a conscious. Then of course, you can't have a bad-ass chick book without something to fight over, which is where Ben comes in: The very typical good guy, who might be a bad boy, but he's just really the misunderstood boy.
There isn't really much you can say about The A-List without giving too much away, but if you liked The O.C, Gossip Girl or just Catty girl fights, then chances are you'll love this book. And even if you didn't like those shows (I certainly didn't), then you might just like it anyway!
