Returning to the Upper East Side

Serena van der Woodsen’s return from boarding school unsettles the social balance among her friends in New York’s Upper East Side. School, romance, fashion, and competition shape the conflict, while the story’s gossip-blog framing makes the group’s private tensions part of a watched social world. As the opening novel in the series, it introduces the setting and relationships that anchor its prep-school drama.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in prep-school fiction and New York social scenes
  • Readers who enjoy stories centered on friendship, romance, and rivalry
  • Fans of the original CW series or HBO Max adaptation curious about the first novel

Book overview

Serena van der Woodsen is back from boarding school--but is she still the Upper East Side's It Girl? The wickedly funny first book in the #1 New York Times bestselling series that inspired the original hit CW show and the HBO Max series.

Welcome to New York City's Upper East Side, where my friends and I live, go to school, play, and sleep--sometimes with each other.

S is back from boarding school, and if we aren't careful, she's going to win over our teachers, wear that dress we couldn't fit into, steal our boyfriends' hearts, and basically ruin our lives in a major way. I'll be watching closely ...

You know you love me,
xoxo Gossip Girl
