Product Description
When Jenny Humphrey confessed to a crime she didn't commit- starting the rampant fire that burned down Miller Farm-she thought her life at elite Waverly Academy was over. But her last minute escape from expulsion made Jenny the most talked-about girl in school. What nobody knows is who saved her. Now at the annual Halloween masquerade ball, she has a plan to unveil her secret admirer.
Callie Vernon knows who her Prince Charming is: Easy Walsh. But when he discovered she and Tinsley Carmichael tried to get Jenny kicked out, Easy dumped her on the spot. Now Callie is dressing up as Cinderella in hopes of winning back his heart. Can she convince Easy she's the one before the clock strikes midnight? Or will her glass slipper-and her heart-be permanently broken?
Everyone wants a fairy-tale ending. But there can only be one It Girl.

A series addition you'll be thankful to get your hands on November 17, 2008

Thanksgiving. A time for friends, family, a long-awaited break from the pressures of school, and giving thanks for everything we have received over the past year. Or so it should be. For Waverly Owls, Thanksgiving is a time to kiss classes goodbye, party until the wee hours of the night, find solace in a long weekend, and avoid the drama of our oft-times bizarre and aggravating families. Just ask It Girls Jenny Humphrey, Tinsley Carmichael, Callie Vernon, and Brett Messerschmidt.
Jenny Humphrey never thought that Tinsley Carmichael would turn into someone she could call a friend, but over the past few weeks, the two of them have blossomed into bosom buddies who share secrets, give each other advice, and gossip about guys. Throw in Southern Belle Callie Vernon, and you've got yourself the Three Musketeers. Callie, Jenny, and Tinsley all think that they're destined to have a delightful three-day weekend in the city, but things go horribly wrong the minute they arrive in NYC. For one, Jenny's apartment is full of bald-headed, robed Hare Krishnas who are creepier than words can describe. Tinsley's parents have left town without any forewarning, abandoning her with no sign of an available hotel room anywhere. Callie, on the other hand, is destined for the time of her life. She's about to meet up with her beloved boyfriend, Easy Walsh, on the top of the Empire State Building. With no place to crash, the trio head to nerdy Yvonne Stidder's place to party like it's 1999. But partying isn't the only thing on the menu. Tinsley is determined to win back the affections of flirty freshman Julian McCafferty, Jenny is longing to put the memories of her relationship with Easy in the past, and Callie is simply eager to hook up with her soul mate once again.
Brett, on the other hand, is looking to simply stir up trouble for her new in-laws back in New Jersey. Spending the long weekend in her animal print McMansion, Brett knows that her Thanksgiving is going to be ruined, but when she discovers that she has the power to teach her future in-laws a lesson they'll never forget, she ceases the opportunity. Guess they'll soon learn that tangoing with an It Girl is never a good idea.
The closing pages of TEMPTED left me salivating to learn what would happen to our favorite It Girls - Callie, Jenny, Tinsley, and Brett. INFAMOUS picks up right where that storyline left off, providing new drama, gossip, and adventures for our favorite characters. As usual, Jenny is her typical naive self; but with the assistance of romance expert Tinsley by her side, she may refrain from making the same "love" mistakes she's made in the past. Tinsley, while constantly trying to maintain a hard exterior, has finally met her match in Julian McCafferty - a boy who proves he may just be the one to tame our favorite wild child. Brett, having been exiled to Jersey, shows readers that, even when you're away from the city you can have a good time - at the expense of others. And Callie, with all her wild dreams of the picture perfect wedding to Easy is living proof that maybe, just maybe, distance doesn't make the heart grow fonder, but, rather, makes the memory of your current love dim with each passing day. Once more, Cecily von Ziegesar has penned a novel that is both delicious and sinful. With the IT Girls by your side, it's impossible not to have a holiday you'll never forget. A series addition you'll be thankful to get your hands on.

Great follow up to Tempted October 31, 2008

Infamous picks up where Tempted left off and Von Ziegesar doesn't disappoint. Just when you think you know what's going to happen next the complete opposite occurs. Several of the characters are changing, they're not who they used to be in previous books. Infamous like all the other books in the It Girl series does a great job of focusing on important story lines but also has enough balance so that no character is featured more than any other. I definitely recommend this book if you're a fan of the Gossip Girl and It Girl series. I can't wait to see what happens next.
