Critical Praise

"The book has the effect of gossip itself--once you enter, it's hard to extract yourself."
--Publisher's Weekly

"Deliciously catty and immediately engrossing, this is the ultimate beach read for teenage girls, offering them a titillating peek into the heady world of Manhattan's well-heeled teens...girls should find this lightweight novel spicy, entertaining, and their own trashy fun."
--Kirkus

"It's light, frothy and fun. If you enjoy gossip, dive into Gossip Girl."
--Bookloons.com

"The vindictive nature and scandal give the novel a Melrose-Place feel with characters you'll love to hate...Gossip Girl is the perfect vacation book. Pack it in your beach bag and go. The dirty deeds of these naughty rich kids make for great weekend reading...Why not indulge your urge? You know you want to read it."
--TheBookhaven.net

"This is a sassy, sexy, indulgent book to be read wearing satin pajamas while sitting in bed with a box of chocolates at your side."
--TeenReads.com

"Gossip Girl reads like Sweet Valley High goes 10021.
