Don't Be Such a Massie

There comes a time in every YA librarian's life when she has to read The Clique.  I've avoided it because it seemed there was more high quality stuff out there, but really these books are so popular among the girls, I really should see what it is all about.  At lunch today I got 28 pages into the first book.  As I expected, it is the Sweet Valley High of the new era.  But this new era is richer and mean-girlier, but we'll see if there are life lessons to be learned among these pages.
