The eighth book in the Gossip Girl series brings the women of Constance Billard to graduation! Now that college plans are in place, it's time for them to party. Blair is not speaking to Serena or Nate --- again --- as they are now sort of dating. She decides that she has had enough of the bohemian lifestyle with Vanessa and moves back to the city, to the Yale Club, where she meets the fabulous Lord Marcus. Nate who?

Serena tries out for a movie part and wows the director --- no surprise there. Soon she'll be too busy for Nate, who runs into drug trouble again and may not end up with his high school diploma after all.

Dan falls again for Vanessa, while she tries to stay with both him and Aaron. But this triangle is trouble in the making.

Jenny, who has been asked to leave school, tours various boarding schools, each more bizarre than the next. Get ready for her to have her own series, THE IT GIRL, starting in November, featuring her new school and adventures.

Graduation ceremonies are dramatic for both men and women with surprises all around, but the party afterwards is even more exciting.

Gossip Girl fans will not be disappointed with this installment. Cecily von Ziegesar seems to be ready to follow the characters to college, and hopefully the plots will continue to hold readers' attention along with the designer and club details for which the series is famous.
