Invitation Only by Kate Brian

Title: Invitation Only (Private #2)

Author: Kate Brian

Pages: 240

Age Group: 14+

From: Bought

Genre: I don't really know what to say.. Chick Lit, Mystery..

Blurb: WARNING IF YOU WANT TO READ THE OTHER BOOKS IN THIS SERIES DO NOT READ THE BLURB, IT CONTAINS SPOILERS!!!

Reed Brennan's future is looking as bright as the two-karat diamonds in her new housemates' ears. Being accepted to the most prestigious private boarding school in the country wasn't enough for Reed. She had to break every rule to do it, but she has accomplished the impossible:

Reed is a Billings Girl now.

And with her new status come respect, envy, and, most important, opportunity. Not to mention the parties. Unfortunately, at the next illicit party in the Easton campus woods, her roommate snaps some pictures of Reed in more than one compromising position. She uses the photos to blackmail Reed: Dig up dirt on the most powerful and popular Billings Girls or she will have Reed expelled.

And speaking of parties, the Legacy is coming up. It's the invitation-only Halloween party in NYC and it's rumored that Thomas -- Reed's MIA boyfriend -- will be making an appearance there. Too bad Reed isn't even close to invited.

Life as a Billings Girl is every bit as glamorous as Reed imagined. What she didn't bargain for is the tangled web of private lies these girls weave.

Review: Yet another great book in the Private series, I felt the start of Invitation Only was a bit slow... But it picked up and I quickly finished it!

I really liked the idea of this book, though I'm not really sure how I feel about Whitaker. I feel as though he's just another boy in the series, who kind of just vanishes after this book...

But still! Read Private, and then read this! The Private Series is amazing!!

5/5
