Dial L for Loser by Lisi Harrison (2006, Paperback)

I did my Christmas shopping for my granddaughter on EBay by buying her all the Lisi Harrison Clique series. This vendor was very prompt and the product was in very good condition.

Never received the book! Paid for it and never seen it. I e-mailed the seller twice and never got a response nor a follow up. I am not sure what the problem was/is.

I liked the book Dial L for Loser. I thought it was greatfor kids to read, but I also felt that it might create unrealistic expectations of how easy it is to get to Hollywood for some younger readers. Overall, I thought it was a good book and worth the money.

The characters of "The Clique" series are spoiled brats that anyone but a twelve-year-old girl would love to hate. Vain, greedy, cruel, pampered, and superficial to the Nth degree, the 'pretty committee' have a horrid charm, rather the observation of a five car pile-up--one cannot look away. If I had a daughter like one of these, not only would I send her to a Muslim country for a reality check, I would be afraid to unbar her door at night. I'm not sure that I would buy a copy for any girl of gentle or loving personality; a tender-hearted girl would simply be put off by the antics of these dum-dums. The popularity of the series indicates that an entertainment has at last been created for the anti-social portion of the literate juvenile market which has been neglected for so long. Yet these characters are no female version of Holden Caulfield. Insolent and self-obsessed, they are well on their way to various forms of addiction, leading one to visualize future titles as the 'Pretty Committee on Suicide Watch', 'Wannabes in Nine-Step' and 'Mass Funerals for Anorexics'. Not for nothing, I guess, is the much-maligned school slanged as OCD--those are, of course, the initials for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. If you want role models for your daughters, the girls of the Clique offer nothing but distorted mirrors, which can be funny but disturbing when taken too seriously. If, on the other hand, you want an junior high version of tabloid romance, you have found your jackpot. Sick but slick fun for the slight-hearted.

My twelve year old twins love this series of books. They both read them and then they share them with their friends. As much as they like to read, we are constantly buying books. Buying them on ebay really cuts down on the cost.

I bought this book for my daughter who LOVES the clique series. I let her read this books because they are right in the age level for preteens and she enjoys reading them. I highly recommend this book! Even I enjoyed reading it!

This book is a must have for all buyers wanting to collect the complete CLIQUE series. The story line follows Claire as she and Massie battle it out to win the starring role in the movie with some very famous people as co-stars. Any tween girl can relate to the everyday challenges Claire, Massie, Dylan, Alicia, and Kristen face, from boys, school, friendships, to betrayal. These girls face about everything imaginable and they still seem to come up on top. This is personally my favorite book out of the series, because it reminds me personally that the mean girls don't always win.

I read it in a night. Once you start reading it, it's really hard to put it down.. It's a great series!!

I loved this book it was soooooooooo amazing i can't wait untill i am done with the next book in the series.
