Gossip Girl was a disappointment. So shallow and gratuitous. There were only two things that kept me reading to the end: trying to guess who was gossip girl and just what was that picture of in Serena's photo? I didn't care about the characters and was there a plot? I know the series is very popular---escapist fantasy that requires no brain power is all I can figure. My age is showing! The teenage me would have enjoyed it.I'm guessing other series such as Lisi Harrison's The Clique series and Zoey Dean's The A-list fill the same need; a chance to walk in the shoes of the ultra-rich, beautiful people in their urban playgrounds. I'll stick with the Cullens.
