I never read the books, now I'm curious!

I started with loving dan and Serena and hating Blair. Actually I find her the most problematic character on the show. But ymmv.

She was so problematic and it's what made me love her the most

that's cool.

But, I still couldn't stand her just like some people hate Dan. But, I loved him despite his judginess. Chuck I'd rather not say.I don't want to offend.

sorry for the dp

Different teams

**ds44** · 08-02-2019, 08:51 AM

Nah I was all about DS. CB can stay in their weird bubble. Only team I am against is DB/NS.

Elle · 08-02-2019, 08:55 AM

D/B was the worst

I read all the books except the prequel and I liked them better than the show

except for Nate, the show one is better.

CB happen in the books too, in the last one, but it's just because the author decided to write them after seeing them in the show. They don't last long, though.

They're a nice read

interesting also because of the different take on some characters (Chuck's mother is alive and well, Blair has a bigger brother, Serena's parents are together, etc.) and even the way GG is basically non existent in the teens life. There are "spotted" and even GG emails replies, but you could skip those pages and you'd be fine anyway

I watched the trailer and I was like...no

I admit that I watched only Twelve with him (and it was great).

I read them all the books including the Jenny spin off with the exception of the last one there a bit shallow and have product placement for monolos and other brands but there fun to read

I have to agree and yes some say it was abusive but I preferred C/B
