I'm reading Gossip Girl. My book has a lot of themes but a very common one is love. Dan is absolute love with Serena and Serena is almost creeped out by him. He writes poetry about her and sends them to her and the thinks this is weird. Dan thinks that Serena fell from heaven and is a gift to the world. Serena just looks at him as if he is a normal nice guy. Dan is in love with her and she is not in love with him at all this has been going on for a while and isn't a new thing so Serena will probably never love him like he loves her.

In Gossip Girl the theme of family and friendship is strong. Blair loves her family but she also hates them right now. Her mom is about to get married to a guy she hates but she will overlook it because she loves her mother. Her all time best friend Serena is going to be a brides maid and she hates her right now. She is going to have to be nice to Serena and maybe they will be friends after the wedding.

The theme in my book right now is popularity and acceptance. Vanessa and Jenny were supposed to meet Serena at the coffee shop on Sunday to look at Serena's film. Serena is the most popular girl and school and in NY. Dan came with Jenny to meet her. Dan has a huge crush on Serena always has. Serena forgot to meet them on Sunday because she has so many other things going on and they weren't a very important thing in her life. They waited on her forever. Vanessa got mad because Serena thinks it's okay to do these things to people because of who she is. Dan and Jenny didn't mind waiting on her at all because she was just so important she was probably off doing really important things. Dan and Jenny are trying there best to fit in and Vanessa just wants to be herself.

In my book, One of the main characters is Blair. Blair's mom and her dad got a divorce and her dad is now gay and her mom is seeing a new guy. Blair doesn't like the guy that her mom is dating because he is nothing like them. He is rich, but that's all he has. He is short fat, bald and unattractive. Her mom came home excited the other day and broke the news to Blair that Cryus had asked her to marry him and she said yes! Blair is having a very hard time accepting that her mom is going to marry Cryus. Blair is also having hard time accepting that her dad is gay and has a boyfriend.
