BEST BOOK BY BEST AUTHOR BY FAR

I don't really care much for most teen fiction, but this is the most fun book I've read in ages. I'm a college student and I picked this up in the airport just because I liked the cover. I didn't even realize it was a teen book until I started reading it. Well, it really goes way beyong a "teen" book because it is so funny, sexy and juicy with all kind of insider Hollywood info. The author is great at specific detail and at getting under the skin of what it feels like to be a teen girl. I highly recommend this very enjoyable book.

The Best A-List Yet!

Anna and the rest of the A-list ditch the senior class trip to Washington DC and go to Las Vegas instead. It is a great idea for a book and Zoey Dean gives this book all the cool stuff she does in all the rest. There is romance. There is betrayals. Cyn and Scott, who are Anna's best friends from New York, show up and really shake things up for everyone. The A-list books are so much fun to read because they have some of the nasty comments of Gossip Girl but also you really, really like Anna. I read this book without getting up and I have to say that I'm really looking forward to the next one when it comes out.

Amazing

this book was amazing i didnt want to put it down... i liked how it fit with the other 4 books and i cant wait for the 6th one to come out next year... this book is a great book for teenage girls in ways i was able to relate to it... and i liked how it gave a lot of detail i felt like i was there while it was all happening...

Best yet!

Without a doubt, "Back In Black" is the best in the A-List series so far. While I was disappointed in "Tall, Cool One," this made up for it! The entire book is full of action, comedy, and terrific character descriptions--making it have an awesome plot. It held my interest the entire time and is my new favorite in this series. In the fifth book, readers get to 'see' Cyn, Scott Spencer, and a new character, Brock. The drama around these three, Cammie, Anna, Sam, Adam, Parker, and Ben (thank God for him!) is incredible. Absolutely perfect!

A fantastic 5th installment to this hilarious series

Deciding to ditch the Washington, D.C. trip for the second year in a row, the Beverly Hills High School A-List crew finds out a lot more about love, life and gambling than they expect. This time around they add to the fold Anna Percy, the newly acquired New York born-and-bred WASP who has become a best friend to Samantha Sharpe. With Las Vegas ready and waiting, this elite group of friends ends up doing and seeing things that wouldn't dare cross their minds in Beverly Hills. Their own little private "senior" trip turns out to be more raucous, funny and astoundingly truth-packed than they ever imagined. From Parker Pinelli winning a much-needed $20,000 that he ends up having to forfeit because he's underage, to the girls' stint in a Vegas showgirl contest, this is a never-ending whirlwind. Joined by Anna's New York friends, Cyn and her boyfriend Scott, things get a little sticky when they all become participants in a Las Vegas revue featuring a famous hypnotist. Everyone has gone bananas --- that is, except Samantha, who has to witness the entire, horrific event. Things go from bad to worse as they all settle down to watch the DVD, and shocking truths about who they really are begin to surface. Can their friendships outlast the reality of how they all feel? Zoey Dean does it again in the fifth installment of this New York Times bestselling series. From beginning to end, readers will be swept away into the world of the A-List, realizing that although these characters are filthy rich with loads of money to expend, they are also human --- breathing, living, and having the same issues as "regular" folks. BACK IN BLACK is a great addition to this hilariously funny series. --- Reviewed by Belinda Williams
