Sealed With A Diss
by Lisi Harrison
248 pages (paperback)
Genre: Fiction/YA
If the Clique books weren't so short, popular, and available at the library, I wouldn't bother with them. But they are all of the above, and they're bearable. The characters, though annoying at times, are realistic if exaggerated a bit (not being a miniature NY private school socialite, I wouldn't know). Massie, Alicia, Dylan, and Kristin are all fashionable, at least. Except, I really do know a guy who likes The Notebook.
The ending is cliffhanger per usual so that the publishers can squeeze as much money as possible out of preteen girls. Seriously--$10 for one volume, when it's about half the surface area of a trade paperback? The plot is completely episodic. Not recommended except in very specific circumstances.
