Best Friends For Never (a clique novel)
By: Lisi Harrison
Pages: 197

(Picking up from the first book…)The clique is back, and this time around, Massie plans to throw her school’s first boy/girl Halloween party. However, her parents would only allow this if she throws the party with Claire (a non-clique). Massie sees this as a chance to show the rest of the school she still got her cool and is still trendsetting. Claire sees this as a possibility to hanging out Massie and getting accepted. Dylan and Kristen (Massie’s clique friends) sees this as the perfect place to snag a new guy…but it seems like both girls like the same boy…uh-oh.
But things soon go out of hand when Massie and her clique friends decided to wear their inappropriate Halloween costumes to school…little did they know that because of what they did, Octavian Country Day School would go uniforms! After a Halloween night full of fun, the girls realized what they had done. With Massie’s brilliant idea, the principal changed the situation to a “design the uniform” contest. Massie decided to enter this contest with her clique friends. But Alicia, (Massie’s friend), has other plans, she has decided to work with Olivia (a non-clique) and above all, compete against Massie. With Alicia gone, Claire is in the picture (although she’s not considered “in” yet), and together, they designed their contest entry uniform. Who’s uniform is going to win? And will Claire finally be part of the Clique? Read on to find out!
Still a great book, and the girls are still as mean as ever. But Massie’s verbal comebacks are starting to get very monotonous…can’t help but think: that was so lame. But still can’t wait to read the third one! Oh yeah, and the idea of guys and boyfriends were mentioned more by the characters, but hey, it’s a teen girl book, so what do you expect, these type of books are never complete without a crush or two.
Rating: 8/10…I liked the first one more
