review 1: A good start to a new young adult series, "Capital Girls" brings to life the world of Washington, DC. The world that most think as glamorous, is shown here as being a life of money and feigned happiness - one where you do what you have to if you want to succeed and survive.Jackie Whitman is considered DC's It Girl. She's beautiful, smart, and is dating the President's son, Andrew. With all the pressures of just being a teen, Jackie finds herself in a very difficult situation and when she tries to handle it alone, she finds all does not go as it should. Jackie is an interesting character that one can feel for. Her friends, though, I'm not so sure about (besides Lettie). I found the book to be a bit slow in the beginning as I was looking for the point of the whole story. As... more it continued, I got drawn in. The story was a bit predictable, but still a decent read. I'm quite looking forward to the next book in the series: "Secrets and Lies"!Pleas note: This book contains adult situations, language, underage drinking and drug usage.
review 2: Okay, this was way not my thing. I thought it was going to be different than it turned out to be. I thought it was going to be more mystery than backstabbing b%$@hes. The mc has a boyfriend, but she ends up getting almost naked with someone else. She has the gall to say hey, maybe I should break up before I get jiggy. Gee, ya think?! and then, oh gee, photoed! and low and behold -- BLACKMAIL. all because she couldn't keep her legs together. After that, it went down hill especially when she finds out that her 'friend' was making the beast with two backs with her boyfriend. yeah, definitely not my thing.There was usage of the f-word and some other words. The writing style was good. There was nothing wrong with it. This just happened to get on my dfn because I'd rather read a book about someone being loyal to their partner. less
