Editorial Review from Product Description:
irls on Film is the wickedly funny and risqu sequel to the bestselling A-List that takes readers behind the scenes of the intoxicating world of Hollywood glitterati. Seventeen year-old Upper East Side blueblood Anna ('pronounced Aaaanah') Percy has moved from posh Manhattan to the even more posh Beverly Hills, California, where she's living with her estranged dad for the rest of the school year while her mother travels to Europe with a friend. Girls on Film begins with Anna's feeling empowered after telling Ben to take a hike. He, however, continues to pursue her - refusing to go back to Princeton without a reconciliation. Anna's just not sure if she buys his New Year's cover story: that he was helping out a celebrity friend who nearly drank herself to death. In the meantime, Anna wonders if she and Adam have any chemistry. Anna also bonds with Sam, and after mentioning Ben's New Year's alibi, the girls try to guess the identity of the mysterious alcoholic celebrity. The list of suspects is a veritable who's who of A-List actresses. Sam invites Anna to a desert spa weekend where, in a climactic finish, we find out whether Dee is actually pregnant with Ben's baby, how Sam resolves her romantic feelings for Anna and, most importantly, whether Ben was acting with pure intentions when he left Anna alone on his boat. The fast times of Beverly Hills most beautiful and glamorous people drive the page-turning action of this irresistible, stylishly written novel.

br / Here's a question for all you girls, have you ever thought you found the one, your other half, your prince charming? That's exactly what Anna Percy thought too when she laid her eyes on Ben Birnbaum. Anna wasn't like the other girls Ben was friends with. Anna wasn't rich, stuck-up, or conniving. Anna was moving on from Ben. In the last book, "The A-List", Ben did leave her that one night on New Year's Eve. I think this book is most like the series "The Clique" because they both deal with related issues from the same perspective, girls. The only differences is the characters ages. In "the Clique" the girls are in middle school and in "The A-list series" is about girls who are in High School or going into college.

br / I believe the most amazing thing about the series is that in every book they keep you updated on everything and everyone. When the new boy, Adam, comes in, they tell you everything about his background. His family, and stories from when he was younger, before he met Anna. I also enjoy reading it because of the suspense. Not scary stuff. Just a lot of questions that take a while to be answered. But the one con about "Girls on Film" is they don't always have the answers. But then again, that's what makes it so good. I do also think that most of the girls in high school probably deal with the same problems as Anna does. Boys, friends, drama, and parents.
br / Over all, it's a great book. It almost like a guide for girls, but at the same time, it's a story. I do love how it shows how everyone deals with the same situations as anyone in regular high school would be dealing with. Real things like this happen and Zoey Dean tied that in very well. But I'm still wondering, has Susan, Anna's sister, become best friends with Cammie Shepard? Anna's new guy Adam, are they more than just friends? Will Ben ever make it up to Anna for leaving her that night? I guess you're going to have to read it too to find out!

# two is just as good!, 2006-08-22
Anna Percy is finally over Ben. (at least that's what she keeps telling herself...) Anna starts to really like Adam, a basketball star from Michigan. (Go blue!) She is just starting to let go of Ben and concentrate on her realshionship with Adam, when Ben makes a huge play to win her back. He puts balloons at her house, roses in her room, and even makes a surprise visit asking for her forgiveness. Anna keeps telling Ben (and herself!) that she is done with him, but she starts to wonder whether or not she really is. So, Anna decides to put her relashionship with Adam on hold to clear things up with Ben. After Ben tells her the truth about what happened on New Year's, Anna decides to forgive him. They finally, in the end, get back together again! Yay! Am I the only one that thinks they should be together?
br /Can't wait to read number three!
