Rave review for GHOSTGIRL

The lovely ladies at chicklish have written a fabulous review of GHOSTGIRL!

'This is the story of Charlotte Usher, who is dying to be in with the popular girls at school - and, more importantly, with one popular boy: Damen. But she's invisible to them; she might as well not exist. And then one day she chokes on a gummy bear and dies. But that doesn't stop her plans to go to the dance with Damen...
Now, I know I should be focusing on the story, but I can't help but point out that this book looks and feels gorgeous! Its has a black coffin-like appearance, with pink and black flower decorations and beautiful silhouette cartoons throughout. This is definitely one to buy as a present...' (to read more click here)

The It Girl Creative Challenge

We realise we didn't give you very long on this month's creative challenge but we LOVE the three entries we got - definitely useful words of wisdom to live by!

"An It Girl should always know just how hot they are. I mean, how can you possibly be any fun to be around if you're worrying about what people are thinking about you?"
Annelise Quattrociocchi

"Remember every detail for the future...except the ones that need to be forgotten."
Danielle Bann

"One of my many rules in life is that you can never have too many pairs of shoes. lol. It's vital because when you're a girl, having any amount of shoes is a dream come true, and plus you need shoes, different types for different places or different weather, so my rule is you can never have too many pairs of shoes."
Stacey knutsen

We can't choose between the three so congratulations to Annelise, Danielle and Stacey who will all be getting a copy of LUCKY, book five in the IT GIRL series.

Keep an eye out for the next challenge - coming soon...

ITV2 Spends a weekend gossiping

A very exciting date for your diaries: ITV2 will show the entire first series of GOSSIP GIRL on the 23rd, 24th and 25th August.

Hey Upper East Siders, Gossip Girl here - your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite…

Spotted at Grand Central, bags in hand, Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively). Was it only a year ago our IT Girl mysteriously disappeared for boarding school? And just as suddenly, she’s back. But how will her privileged prep school peers learn that ‘S’ is back in town? The way they learn all the important news in their lives: from the blog of yours truly the all-knowing but ultra-secretive Gossip Girl. No one knows my identity, but everyone in this exclusive and tangled vicious circle relies on my website and text messages for the latest scoop. Even S’s closest friend, Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), doesn’t welcome her mysterious return to Manhattan with open arms.

One thing is for sure, when S was out of the picture, B enjoyed her time in the spotlight, and she has no intention of going back to living in Serena’s shadow. The tension between the pair isn’t lost on anyone in this crowd, who live for gossip and scandal – along with fashion, shopping and partying in Manhattan’s trendiest hotspots…

And who am I? That's one secret I'll never tell. You know you love me. Xoxo, GossipGirl

The DVD of series one is out from the 18th August.
