now on to the review:

Title: The Au Pairs: Sun-kissed
Author: Melissa De la Cruz
Pages: 320
Audience: Teenage girls
Genre: Chick lit

Plot Summary: So, just like the previous 2 The Au Pairs books (The Au Pairs and The Au Pairs: Skinny-Dipping), this story revolves around three girls- Jacqui, Mara and Eliza. This time around, Mara is interning at a magazine, living with Ryan on his family's boat and freaking out over getting accepted in to Dartmouth. Eliza was (key word, was) interning with a fashion desiner and is still with Jeremy, but we all know there has to be some sort of drama happening here, right? Lastly, Jacqui is still working for the Perry family, trying to keep the Perry couple together and dating three boys at the same time (drama, drama, drama I tell you). Basically, you read about the ups and downs of three rather priveledged ladies.

Opinion: This book is decent enough. If you're fans of the other two previous books or the Gossip Girls series, then yes, you should definetly read it (although, Gossip Girls is a bit more extreme than this book). I thought that it wasn't as good as the first one and cliched. I hated how the story was told from three points of view, with little interaction with all three characters. It's three little stories of each individual rather than one story with three characters.
On the up side, it's a great light read if you're super bored. It's easy to go through quickly and the characters are each lovable in their own way.
*SPOILER ALERT: Although I got to say, I was really happy to here that Mara and Ryan were going to be living together in this book, not too happy to find out that their relationship is going rocky..again.
