Oh my God. . . if you've ever wondered what an Aaron Spelling soap opera would be like in book form, here it is. The only difference with this book and 90210 is that 90210 (the original run) had some interesting characters. These characters are as stock as stock can be.

You're probably wondering where I got my hands on this book. Well, I suffer from a disease called Magpie-itis. Like a magpie, I collect little bits of random things here and there and return them to my nest. Back in 1999, while taking a walk to the supermarket across the street from my parents' restaurant, I picked this up and finally read it last month.

It's not so bad that it's dated in terms of language. The real issue is that one of the main characters, Zoey, has this awful made-up language consisting of nicknames for everything, and I mean EVERYTHING! It was a relief when Tristan, the other narrator took over because he sounded semi-coherent. Boring, but coherent.

Avoid this book. It is cliche ridden and just annoying to read. Don't suffer my fate because since this first book in the series ended in a cliffhanger, I have to locate the next book so I can justify my hate.

Pity me and my idiotic sense of need for completion.
