Like the first book in the "Gossip Girl" series, "You Know You Love Me" follows our same group of posh upper east side teens through their life as rich bratty teenagers.
However, in my opinion, the first book was just a tad better than the sequel. In this sequel, we jump straight into the events that were taking place in the first book. Yet Cecily (for some reason) decides to info dump every little detail imaginable that any reader would have already known if they had read the first book beforehand. I can't see any reason as to why she choose to do this and feel that the info dumping takes up valuable plot time that could have been used to better flesh out other events or characters.
Other than the info dumping, I really enjoyed this book and have thoroughly enjoyed following along with these characters so far. I'm extremely happy that Chuck was in this book for less than 10 pages and hope to see more of that moving forward ;) I will be picking up the third book in this series just because I love the drama and have grown attached to Serena and Jenny (although I find it kinda creepy and disturbing that Cecily constantly elaborates on Jenny's boob size as if she isn't 14...lol).
Spoiler (sort of):
