This is the fifth installment of the Gossip Girl series, and honestly, I’m running out of things to say about these books.  Picking up where the fourth book left off, I Like It Like That follows the spoiled Upper East Siders on their Spring Break.  Teenagers on Goodreads love this book real hard (one girl wrote a book report on this book which, I’ll admit, I probably would have done in 7th grade, but at the same time, makes my jaw clench because these books are SMUT); adults on Goodreads loathe this book/series because of what it is.  I’m willing to accept at face value as entertainment, like when I watched Entertainment Tonight’s coverage of the inauguration last night.  Face value.

I must mention CHUCK BASS. Not as prominently featured as I hoped, but his inclusion in this book is beyond A-MAZING.  I won’t spoil it (unless you specifically ask me for the details), but trust me, Chuck Bass in the books has surpassed Chuck Bass of television.
