review 1: It`s Christmas break and Taylor invites D.J. to come with her to Las Vegas for Christmas where Taylor`s Mum will be performing on her tour! Awesome! When D.J. gets to Las Vegas she is so happy to finally be in a huge city! What could be better than spending Christmas in Las Vegas? Getting lost at Christmas time in las Vegas!! The worse part is when Taylor get insanely drunk while D.J. is lost in Las Vegas and she cant seem to find her friend. What will happen now? Once Taylor gets put in rehab D.J. returns and hears the terrible news about Taylor and getting drunk. Is there a way for her to get her friend back? Or not?
review 2: The book starts out with the 6 girls getting ready to go to the Winter Ball - this preparation includes actually confirming their da... moretes, shopping for new dresses and accessories, and for Taylor and DJ (roommates, but not necessarily BFFs) a day at a posh new day spa.DJ and Rhiannon are the Christian girls of the bunch with Eliza and Taylor being the self-professed party girls. Kriti and Casey fall somewhere in between. DJ and Rhiannon have the best time at the ball, without the alcohol offered to them and without compromising thier beliefs.Christmas break is on the horizon and DJ is looking forward to "alone" time, away from the other girls. They are leaving soon to travel to various places to stay with family and friends. DJ is staying at Carter House with her grandmother. She as decided not to go to her dad and stepmom's house, as she feels she will just become the babysitter for her twin sisters. When Taylor calls from Las Vegas (where she is spending Christmas with her mom who is performing there) claiming she is lonely and could use some company, DJ prays that if that is where God wants her to go, then he will clear the way. She is ready for some company herself!Once in Vegas, DJ questions why God has brought her here. Is she supposed to keep Taylor out of trouble? And when Eliza arrives, will she be able to? DJ questions why she is in Vegas at all and Taylor puts her faith to the test.Lost in Las Vegas is Book 5 in the Carter House Girls series (Mixed Bags; Stealing Bradford; Homecoming Queen; and Viva Vermont). It read okay as a stand alone, but it was hard to keep the girls straight at first. I am going to try to find the first 4 so that I can get caught up - because books 6-8 are coming out soon!This was a very quick read for me and I would highly recommend it - especially for teen girls struggling with their faith in the real world! less
