Annotation: The "it" teenagers of the Upper East Side have it all--drugs, sex, booze and gossip--too much of all their favorite vices. The hated Queen Bee Serena has returned from two years away at boarding school, and her ex-bestfriend is worried she will lose her social standing and her boyfriend back to Serena. It's a dangerous place to be: at the top.

Booktalk: Who do you ask for advice on this year's designer duds? Or if you're boyfriend is cheating on your with Serena? Or if you should bother attending yet ANOTHER benefit party? Or if it's tacky to still drink like a fish? Or if getting high really does make you look lame? Or rather who do you ask for the latest and hottest gossip in all of NYC?

The Gossip Girl, that's who......you know you love her.
