Book Reviews of Gossip Girl, The Carlyles #2: You Just Can't Get Enough (Gossip Girl Novels)
Book Review: BORING
Summary: 1 Stars
I hate to say this, but this book was boring . I have been a fan of the Gossip Girl series from the beginning, and normally I'd finish the books within a few hours after purchasing them, but it took me a few days to get through this one, because I just couldn't get into it. The storylines with the new characters are uninteresting, as are most of the characters, who seem to be cheap rip-offs of the original characters. Avery is like an even less interesting version of Jenny Humphrey with her wannabe ways. Jack seems to be the new Blair, but nowhere near as fun to read about, as is with Owen, who seems to be the new Nate, but in my opinion doesn't even compare. Rhys gets annoying with his moaning over Kelsey (I mean I feel bad for the guy and all, seeing as how he loves her but come on, grow some balls!) and Kelsey is just irritating with the way she leads Rhys on, and even agrees to date him again even though she's in love with Owen. JP is okay I guess, but again, nothing special. The only character I enjoy reading about is Baby Carlyle. In my opinion she's the only good thing about the new series so far, and is by far the most original. I like how she's not the typical rich girl, and how she pretty much lashes with the rest of her classmates and how she has her own ideas and thoughts about doing things.
Now I'm not going to say that this is the point where the Gossip Girl series went downhill. Because come on, truthfully the last few books of the series with the original characters weren't oh so wonderful either because of the repetitive storylines (Nate loves Serena.....Nate loves Blair....Nate loves Serena....Nate loves Blair again....etc, etc!) so I do think its good that Cecily ended those books before it got even worse, but she could have atleast made the "caryle" series way better! When I read the new series, I can't help but miss the old characters and wonder what they have been up to since the series ended.
Now I'm not saying that I'm necessarily going to stop reading the new series, because like I said, I like Baby, and I've been a Gossip Girl fan for a long time, but if the series still ends up going nowhere in the third book, I might just have to give up.
I really wish that Cecily would atleast come out with one book that tells us what the original characters have been up to since they left for college (oh how I miss Blair and all her drama!) and even though I'm not a huge Serena fan, I think itd even be interesting if Cecily wrote a book about everything that happened to Serena during her days at boarding school!
