The Best Clique Book!!!

I have read all the other Clique books, but this one was by far my favorite. I read this in one day, because once you get into it, you just can't put it down. I'll tell you a bit about it, but if you haven't read the others, i strongly suggest you start from the beginning. Alicia's beautiful cousin Nina from Spain spends the semester at OCD, and all the boys LOVE her. She dresses in revealing, sexy outfits, and has alot of boy experience. Massie, Alicia, and Claire despise her because she's a show-off, and has kicked Massie out of the number one spot at OCD (Octavian Country Day School). Kristen and Dylan like her because she will give a pair of stylish boots to whichever girl wins a bet. I'm not going to tell you why Nina is really evil, you have to read the book for that. I reccomend the whole Clique series to people who are too young to read "The It Girl". They have similar concepts, but that book is for older teens. However, there are curses in these books and phrases like "sluto-rita". Kids under ten or eleven should not be reading this. Anyway, it's a good book, but you should buy the next book, or even the whole series, because you will want to know what happens next, I guarantee that!

An ah-mazing novel.....

The Invasion of the Boy Snatchers, was the BEST clique book EVER! This novel was more about guys than the other three novels in the series since the relationships between the girls of OCD and the boys of Briarwood (finally!) begin to evolve. But Invasion of the Boy Snatchers still has Massie's witty joke/questions, the Clique's glamorous clothes and the usual drama that follows the Clique like a lost puupy. Alicia's super hot cousin, Nina, comes to Westchester from Spain. Nina is competition for Massie as she has more experience with boys and Kristen (who now looks like a boy thanks to a horrid haircut) and Dylan easily fall into her clutches. Meanwhile, Kristen and Dylan aren't the only people Nina seems to have spellbound. Nina managed to get the attention of Derrington, Cam and Josh and prevent them from talking to Massie, Claire and Alicia. Massie, Claire (who can't stop talking about wanting to kiss Cam) and Alicia finally decide they have to do something and unleash their cattiness at the Valentine's Love Struck Dance. The end of the novel was part expected and part unexpected. It really made me want to read the next novel because I'm dying to find out what happens next. Will Claire finally get that kiss from Cam? Will something happen between Massie and Derrington? Guess I'll just have to read the next novel :D

The Best Yet

This has to be the best book in the series yet and Lisi Harrison finds something to spice up each book in it's own way. The Valentine's Day Dance is coming up, and we all know what that means: you better have a date for the dance. But when Nina, Alicia's cousin from Spain visits, it isn't pretty. Secrets will be revealed about Nina and her past and the dance will be such fun. Will Claire move away, or stay? Will Nina be a gal pal, or a total pest? You really should read to find out. Read the 1st three books or you'll be out of the loop. They are a great investment and you will remember the books for a long time.

Awesome Book!!!

I think The Invasion of the Boy Snatchers is a really great book. It's very much like a real school and the drama is something that I can relate to in real life. This story is the fourth in the series of Clique books, which are about Massie, a popular, fashionable, and rich girl; and Claire, a loser beyond repair (as Massie puts it) who's family lives with Massie's. In this book, one of Massie's best friend's beautiful cousin Nina from Spain comes to visit America. Massie and Claire become jealous when Nina steals their best friends, their boyfriends, and not to mention Massie's popularity. When they find out that Nina has been stealing from the whole school, they are both determined to show everyone that Nina is not only a thief, but that she is also really a geek. This is a really good book for anyone who is into lots of drama, or for anyone who is into the Clique series, however, I wouldn't recommend it to someone who hasn't read all of the previous books. The story is never slow or boring and is a stay-up-all-night book.

Another installment of fun escape reading

The fourth book in the Clique series begins with a secret. Massie knows Claire is moving away, although Claire has no idea --- and it's killing Massie! Claire is the sister Massie never had, and Massie already misses her. So when Claire's father announces the move, Claire is the shocked one. However, Massie's father talks them into staying by offering more pay and a totally rebuilt guesthouse. In the meantime, Claire's family will stay in Massie's house during the renovation. Massie is thrilled that Claire is staying, but she is NOT thrilled to have a roommate. She loves her room the way it is, plus she knows her other friends will be envious of the new living arrangements. Speaking of envy, Alicia's cousin, Nina, is visiting from Spain. She is too beautiful and way too flirtatious with Massie and Claire's crushes. All the boys are very impressed. Some of Massie's clique are also impressed with Nina's fashion style and experience with boys --- and that burns Massie up. As the Valentine's Day dance approaches, excitement bubbles through Massie's group. In order to take the guy they like to the dance, they must shoot him with a Velcro-tipped arrow. Of course, Massie has her eye on not only going with Derrington, but also for them to be crowned as the most popular couple, with the prestigious Cupid Award. However, Nina announces she can (and will) arrow every one of their crushes if the clique isn't nice to her. As the roommate situation worsens, Massie's things start vanishing. Massie turns accusatory. Can she discover who the thief is? Will she dethrone Nina? Once again, the mean girls make for intriguing reading. Although many of their actions continue to be cringe-worthy, they occasionally show a hint of heart. The frequent brand name dropping is fun (although it may date the series in the near future): Massie describes the feeling she gets around her crush as "...weak and tingly, like all the cells in her body had turned into Diet Coke bubbles...." Other amusing bits of whimsy include Claire telling fortunes with candy hearts and Kristen speaking in word jumbles ("Rorsy" for "Sorry"). The situation with the newcomer sets up some explosive reactions. It all makes for another installment of fun escape reading for Clique series fans to devour with gusto. --- Reviewed by Terry Miller Shannon (terryms2001@yahoo.com)
