Between trips to the Met and shopping at Bendel's, the girls are living the A-List life on Anna's home turf. But their trip isn't exactly a vacation.

okay so i only started reading these books after i finished the gossip girl series, the it girl, pretty little liars, twilight, the clique and so on. i didnt have anything else to read so i started the a-list. i first saw it advertised in the back of some book and started reading the series.

I.. LOVE.. LOGAN!
He's amazing, cute, witty and he just clicked with Anna since they both had history together. May not be not much romantically, but hoo boy, I got so hyped in the ending when Anna decided to follow him. (Spoiler alert!) I kinda agree with Sam that Ben isn't quite good for Anna. It seems that everytime they get togther, there's a third girl in the picture. Know what I mean? Although we can't blame Ben for his good looks and charisma, I'd have to give it to Eduardo for being ...more

Frankly, if I could give this book a 0 out of 5 stars I would; that's how bad it was!
The only reason why this book ever ended up in my possession was because it was a gift from a friend. In all honesty, I tried to read it and never went beyond the 1st chapter because that was how crap the plot was and how superficial the characters were! And even then I was already finding the entire thing tedious so much so that I was skipping huge chunk of texts to figure out the direction Dean was...more

This book is another in one of the series of teen books I consider a guilty pleasure. It is like reading US Magazine or the exploits of Paris Hilton. This is not deep reading but it is enjoyable and goes fast. I still don't like this series as much as Gossip Girl but it is not bad.

I swear, this series just gets worse and worse. I don't expect great things from beachy books about spoiled teenagers in Hollywood, but the glaring factual errors are plain distracting. At this point, I'm mostly reading because I'm curious about what happens to Anna, the only halfway-likeable character, and because it's fun picking apart the book.
Sam's insecurity is getting old. Didn't the same thing happen in the last book, when Eduardo was going to ask her to marry him? She jumped ...more

The A-List is basically a series about a group of people who are all descendants of famous people that work in Hollywood. Set in Claifornia, each book talks about how the main characters undergo constant obstacles and a series of events that all lead to a lot of misunderstanding. (And seriously, they all have trust issues. How many more readings about betrayals and backstabbing can I withstand before I consider throwing the book away? But it's like an addiction almost; I can't stop reading, even...more
The book starts out with Anna and Ben at the Ben-Hur wrap up party where Ben tells her that he wants to open a club. Anna is not thrilled about the idea but goes along with it for a while. Caine shortly dumps Anna because he is serious with another girl. Eduardo proposes to Sam and she accepts. Cammie breaks up with Adam and she hooks up with Ben. Anna is hurt so she goes to New York with Sam and she thinks she is in love an old time friend from elementary school named Logan.

This is more like "read enough" than actually "read." Not worth finishing, even in one of those moods where a little trash would be OK. This isn't even good trash, just - as another reviewer wrote - BORING! Not enough story to even half make up for page after page of empty trivia and labels name-dropping. Vacuous beyond belief. So I'm signing off, not about to waste the time finishing it. I would hope even the teen set could do better than this!

I have to say, this was one of the few A-List books that I really, really liked -- it was a total page-turner. I know I say this with every volume, but this one really turns down the amount of time we have to spend with Anna, and wow does it make a big difference. When we are with her, she's mostly actually not mooning over Ben, which makes this even better -- I almost care what she thinks! (But then again, only almost -- in other words, not really). Dee's pretty much invisible in this book, but...more

This book was a light and easy read, as usual. Once again, I was totally jealous of Sam's man, Eduardo. I can't wait to read the last book in the series.
i think it is a preety good book
sometime i got really mad at things
that happen, and wished i was the
writer and change it.

i dont really like this book
F DEA A-list bk.9
the story continues, and i am not sure i want it to end. cute segments if you are a new yorker, and love certain places. like they only waited 20 minutes in line at wohop. i love that place.
Like all the rest of the A-List series, this book is very addictive. Once I start reading I can't put it down and when once is finished I can't wait for the next one to come out
The ninth in the A List series, and better then the rest. As the series is coming to an end the books are getting much better. Anna elopes with a stranger from her past!!
Not one of the better books in the series. It's almost as though Dean began running out of things to write about. That must be why the stories wrap up in the next book.
Loved it! I finished it last night, and was sad it was over. I thought there were a few more pages, but it was just stuff about Gossip Girls :[
There's more romantic beating around the bush, and in the end of this book you just know it's a placeholder for the final book.
Yay last one to review (for now)…is intrilligent a word?…nope…its not. Eh, is now. This book was intrilligent!
this was a really good book,althougth it has been a while since i've read it! it was a good continuation of this series.
Happy to finally be able to finish the series. I wonder if Zoey Dean will keep it going, though...
CANNOT WAIT for book 10
