Gossip Girl: #1: A Novel by Cecily von Ziegesar | 
#VolumesAndVocals #UptownGirl
My favorite uptown girls are the ladies of Gossip Girl. I never finished the book series. Perhaps I'll do a reread and revisit them all over again.
I'd like to point out Blair, in the middle right picture, doing the universal hand gesture that says "Girl... do you see that? We are SO talking about this later." ?

Probably an obvious choice for #gossip #200pnpcovers @CrowCAH @mabell
Question: I have put a bunch of GG novels on hold for potential analysis with Edith Wharton. Very low stakes & I don‘t know if anything will come of it. The new covers look to be the most widely available at the library. I only ever read the first in high school. Quick skim seems to show text to be same but does anyone know of any Sweet Valley High-esque shenanigan text updates?
#3Books set in New York City. @OriginialCyn620 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Not going to lie, when I first discovered the Gossip Girl books, I devoured them. I think I was probably in my late 20's/early 30's. These books made me want to sit on the steps of the Met and drink coffee and read a book (which I eventually did). I love NYC and can't wait to go again!
I'm joining @Andrew65 and sharing some of my favorite series.
Day 10: Gossip Girl (in progress)
The secrets & scandals of privileged white teens on NYC's Upper East Side are exposed when anonymous blogger Gossip Girl starts revealing their dirty laundry. A fun guilty pleasure series (with a fun TV show, too.) I have them all but only read up to book 7. I need to revisit and complete the series.

::Kristen Bell voice:: Good morning, Upper East Siders! It‘s finally time to talk Gossip Girl on my podcast! On today‘s episode, YA author Alexandra Monir joins me to chat about this iconic series — what we loved, what parents hated, and what wouldn‘t hold up in 2020. Am I Team Blair or Team Serena? Find out! 💋 Link to listen in bio!

panDefinitely not as good as the show this had made me reminiscing though, mostly on Blair‘s outfits which meant apparently for some reason when I was searching it on Pinterest I kept typing Gossip Gorl by accident so I had to know if there‘s a Gru meme and of course there is it‘s the internet 😂
This book is not great so far but I needed a quick, fun read and this is basically the only thing I could think of doing to stop me rewatching the show when I‘m already watching too many things 😰
pickAs a fan of the first couple seasons of the show it was fun to read this soapy book. A basic sort of trashy novel about the lives of the mostly spoiled teens on nyc‘s upper east side. Chuck comes off even creepier in the book if that‘s possible. S tries to return but has a harder time than she thought. Will be B and S reconcile...guess I‘ll have to keep reading. Xoxo. #socialmediafocused #booked2019 #canthelpmyself #guiltypleasure #sobaditsgood
so-soRead this because it was mentioned in #PaperbackCrush. The girls in this book make Jessica Wakefield look like a saint! 😂😂 While it was interesting to ‘get away‘ to a different style of living, I don‘t think I‘ll be reading any more of the series. Maybe I‘ll catch and episode of the show on Netflix next...
Starting this one tonight after reading #PaperbackCrush. I think it would be really neat to try and read at least one book from each series mentioned in that book.
Today's bookmail Part one (books for me)

No way!!
so-soI read this in preparation for watching the TV show and all I can say is, I hope the TV show is better than the book!
so-so?About über wealthy teen brats from NYC & their superficial drama. 1st in a series.
?Salacious, scandalous, sardonic, & shallow characters who are fun to make fun of.
?Doesn‘t take itself seriously at all (which is good).
?No real plot.
?Good for ppl who‘re wanting a trashy, non-sexually graphic read for wanton indulgence.
?Not for ppl who‘re wanting serious stories.
?Fast-paced.
?Average as fuck writing, maybe below even.
?2.75/5

A little indulgence for the sick human in bed today. I enjoyed the TV series so much for what it was & the book is making me want to re-watch it!!
About a bunch of über rich brats from NYC & their ridiculous drama. It‘s scandalous, salacious, hilarious, & a satirical delight.

😂😂
so-soListened to my first audiobooks in what seemed like forever. My friend got a pretty bad concussion and can‘t read or look at screens for a while so we picked these two to entertain ourselves while she recuperated. All and all give both of these a 3/5⭐️ for how hilariously dramatic they were 🤣
so-soI was one those that watched gossip girl. I haven't seen every single episode but I did follow it for about two seasons (the last two). I thought it was an alright show so when I got the chance to buy this book at a dirt cheap price, I took it because books are mostly better. In this case it wasnt so or maybe its because I grew up. Whatever the reason, I didnt enjoy it as much. Shallow despicable characters I expected. But (contd below)
1) Black Panther or Infinity Wars which are pretty much the only movies I‘ve seen in 2018 (at a theater)
2) Food, couch, cuddles, movie/tv
3) 57
4) This thing was sooo damn boring.
5) I‘m on it!
#Friyayintro @jesshowbooks
#readingresolutions This series about super #rich kids was all I wanted to read in high school. Never saw the show though 💁 @Jess7
pickThis was the perfect pool read. I might have to read the next one! Also, it‘s #MountTBRChallenge #30
I am not making great progress through this book. I don‘t like many of the characters.
This is so different from the show but yet similar. I should really stop comparing but I can‘t help myself.
Two #Riotgrams for the price of one!! DAY 7: Skulls, Pumpkins, WITCHES; I went with Witches! AND DAY 8: BOOKS YOU LOVED AS A TEEN— I chose the T*Witches series for both lol 😜😜
#backtoreading #thosepeskycliques
In my mind teen age girls are synonymous with pesky cliques.
I'm so glad I hung on to the Gossip Girl series I bought long ago. Middle Sister has decided to read the whole series this summer.
Book with a girl on the cover. I never get a chance to take a pic of this book. What books do you have like that?

#junetunz i loved is serie when i was a teen and the tvshow as well. i don't think i have read all the books. #smellsliketeenspirit
Yep, I read this entire series as an adult. And what? #xoxo #cheapthrills #lyricalapril
pickEek need to start the next one immediately! Definitely filling the void the TV show left! #books #gossipgirl #cecilyvonziegasar #series #bookone #booktotv #addicted #justfinished #newyorkcity #love #Goodreads #pickitup #youngadult #easyreads
Addicted and loving this book! Filling the void after watching all 6 seasons of the TV show ❤ #gossipgirl #booktv #chicklit #ya
so-soI while I don't love these anymore I did have and read all of this series and The It Girl spin-off. I have fond memories of this series and I just recently watched the tv show because it bothered me that it was so different right from episode one! #HatetoLove #BookLove17
so-soAn unexpected pain while we were at Disneyland, gave me almost 6 hours alone with the 2 books I brought but didn't expect to read. This book has been on my shelves for years. Since before there was a Gossip Girl show on television. I know there are kids like this. I'm glad my high school experience was nothing like it. Quick read. Somewhat enjoyable. I wanted to finish, so it had that. #LitsyAtoZ #V
