I need a nap but I'll be finished with this when I wake up hehe

So far, so cute. It’s nice to finally be able to read the book that inspired the films I loved so much growing up & the characters as they were meant to be portrayed. I love the indirect references to groups that were popular at the time & I love how confident Galleria is within herself. I also love how she has her own style, flare, & how close her and Chanel are. I’m excited to meet the twins as I read further.

Okay I know this book is geared to teens, but I have to tell you, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of one Black person calling another Black and Italian person “a chocolate covered cannoli” as an insult…It just seems so unbelievable like what? 😂

I remember being so obsessed with the movie that I told my aunt and she let me know it was based on a book series. I was never able to read all of them, so I'm trying now lol

This is so RIDICULOUSLY early 2000s and the 10 year old in me is LIVING 😩💜
