It's almost Valentine's Day at Waverly Academy, and love is in the air...and in everyone's inboxes. Each year, The Waverly Computer Society runs Perfect Match, an online personality survey that pairs up Waverly Owls with their supposed soul mates. Now the campus is overrun with peculiar pairings, odd couples, and mischief makers hoping to play Cupid for a day.

It is going to be so, so, so hard for me to write a spoiler-free review of this book, but I feel I must -- I've been way too indulgent in that regard lately. Suffice to say, this book was a mixed bag for me, but one huge con was one single misstep that generates a lack of continuity with the Gossip Girl series and sacrifices (for me at least) a lot of the believability of that otherwise relatively seamless fictive world.

A great ending to a great series. I'm so sad to see the It Girl done but also kind of glad it wasn't spread out so much like Private or something. I first read the It Girl in 7th grade and stopped after that then took up the series after it had ended.

I'm actually sad this is the last book out of the series. The last pages were kind of hard to finish, because I didn't want to finish the book but I force myself too. It was kind like losing a friend, a rich-fabulous-trashy friend of course.
The book starts out with Easy Walsh(surprisingly) because it always starts out with Jenny. The book is probably the best in my opinion out of the series. I did feel bad for Brandon and I still find Callie annoying, it made me said make your mind? which guy d ...more

Where the hell was Heath and Kara. They were the best part of the book. Jenny is so boring! I wanted a happy ending for them and I feel like it never came.
It's Valentine's day at Waverly, and everyone is paired up for that week, thanks to the Perfect Match system. Everyone's happy....or are they? Jenny Humphries thought she can spend the whole week with her perfect boyfriend, Isaac Dresdsen, the dean's son. But things don't go well at the Valentine's Dance where Isaac's girlfriend, Molly, showed up and Jenny realized that Isaac was nothing more than a liar and she ran out of the Ball, but before she ran back to Dumbarton, she looked at her friend

Classic is the tenth and final novel in the It Girl series, and is a great end to what is definitely one of my all-time favourite series. There's all the usual drama I've become accustomed to, as well as brilliantly funny dialogue (Heath Ferro should be immortalised forever), new scandals and a look at the many Waverly relationships.
Classic sees Jenny Humphrey's last semester of her first year at Waverly, and as usual nothing runs smoothly. Valentine's Day brings brings with a whole host of stre ...more

As I mentioned the 'series' in a review off The Devil Wears Prada I figured I should review this book too. I liked the series a lot, I should of course not forget to mention that I started reading this when I was a little younger, around the age of 13, when everything involving scandal and pearls seemed marvelous. But I finished 'Klassiek' (Classic) this year and I was saddened it was over. Cecily von Ziegesar is a lovely author, but finishing this series I knew it was enough for now. I watch Go

Oh no it's over! Through this whole challenge I have made my way through this 10 book series (THANK YOU uncommon letter :) ), and now I'm finally done. These books are all light, teen lit, without much substance too them, but I still found them enjoyable. The only carry over characters from the original Gossip Girl series are Jenny and her family (Rufus and Dan). I don't know why I still like reading about people in high school, but I do... maybe it is because they remind me more of people/mysel

A fond and well-wrought farewell to this sweet, warm-hearted series filled with fun and lovable characters. Everyone ended up roughly where they should be, which is to be expected, since the series is ending but the characters still have a couple more years at Waverly ahead of them. The Jenny Humphrey of the books is so completely different to that exskanktioned airhead of the GG tv show that the two are similar in name only. The real Jenny is a charming, winsome heroine who has allied herself w

I'm sad to see the series end but at the same time I'm certain that I won't be missing some of the more annoying aspects (the brand name dropping - constantly).
I was disappointed that the couple that I was invested in didn't work out but I suppose they weren't pivotal to the series. The end pairings didn't seem very unexpected, which I guess is good (maybe the end isn't a good time for surprises). Some character arcs were wrapped up nicely, though others fell short.

I'm so bummed that all of my guilty pleasure teen books have ended this year/last year. Gossip Girl and its spinoff The Carlyles, A-List and its spinoff Hollywood Royalty, the Clique is ending with its next book, and now It Girl. These weren't literary masterpieces by any stretch of the imagination, but they were so nice to read when I needed a break from reality and wanted to read about spoiled, rich teens.

I can't believe I finally finished this. Honestly, as far as chick-lit goes, it's a pretty great series. You just sort of have to shut your brain off ;) I liked the epilogue, but a bit weird that they jumped from February to right before summer. Makes me wonder if there were supposed to be more books.

All in all, I enjoyed this spin-off series much more than the original Gossip Girl books. Maybe it's the boarding school setting, but I found Jenny's story a lot more entertaining and less repetitive. An easy read, nothing ground breaking, but enjoyable. This final installment tied up the characters stories pretty well

Be prepared, readers. CLASSIC, the tenth IT GIRL novel, is the final chapter in the series, according to the back of the book.
Jan Plan is ending and the gang at Waverly is finally coming off probation. After the crazy party that went totally awry at the Dean's house in the last novel, the students have basically been on house arrest with little contact between the sexes. The school term is just about to begin, and Valentine's Day is only a week away.

In the final book of the it girls series, it's valentines day. The characters are all set up by perfect match, the schools make making system. Some of them end up in the end exactly where they should have been all along, some ended up with who you would have least expected. All the main girls (Jenny, Callie, Tinsley, and Brett) all end up with their own happy ending, all better off then they were at the beginning of the school year.

Classic is the tenth and final book in The It Girl series created by Cecily von Ziegesar.
After finishing this book, I was deeply sad. It was because this book was the last in the It Girl series. It would've been cool if their was another It Girl planned, maybe being the length of Gossip Girl: It Had To Be You, which is 400-something pages, and it tells us what happens to each character when returning to Waverly. It's possible.

Ah, the end of the Gossip Girl/It Girl saga. It was fun while it lasted. I will say they would have been wise to put this one out before the last GG novel, which falls later in time than this one. It's kind of hard to get excited to know what happens to Jenny in this when you already know what life is going to be like for her years later. It was a good wrap up for the rest of the Waverly gang, though.

The last of the IT girl books... I have never been a really big fan of Jenny Humphrey, so I'm not even sure what made me start this series in the first place. The only character I feel even a bit close to is Brett, and since her storyline was in turmoil again, I kept reading for her. It was a really good girly read, nice to have after a stressful week. But I am kind of glad I don't have to read about Jenny Humphrey any more...

So sad to finally see the ending of this book series! I read most of it in the span of like a week, but I feel like I've gotten to know these characters well, as if I really spent an entire school year with them. It feels weird not knowing what's going to happen next. I will miss them all, no kidding. I liked the ending too. I think everything was wrapped up in an alls-well-that-ends-well kind of thing and I liked it. I'm rambling, but I am really sad to see this end.

Why end the series now? Did Cecily von Ziegesar want to focus on The Carlyles and new ventures? I was a bit confused about that, and the speedy "let's-wrap-it-all-up-in-about-eight-pages-ending," but another good book by von Ziegesar. I'm a bit old for this series I would think, but its a bit of a guilty pleasure for me ;)...
