Well, well, well… looks like someone wants the dirt. Serena van der Woodsen is back on the Upper East Side after disappearing for a year, and naturally, her return sends Manhattan into a frenzy. Especially for her former best friend, Blair Waldorf, who isn’t exactly thrilled to see her old partner-in-crime suddenly reclaiming the spotlight. Then there’s Nate Archibald, Blair’s boyfriend—and Serena’s former secret. Because apparently, keeping your best friend’s boyfriend off-limits was too much to ask. As Nate struggles between what he wants and what he’s supposed to want, Blair’s carefully perfect world starts falling apart. Meanwhile, Brooklyn outsider Dan Humphrey catches Serena’s attention, and suddenly he’s living the fantasy he’s only ever watched from the sidelines. His sister Jenny, however, has her own ambitions: becoming part of Blair’s elite inner circle, no matter what it takes. And let’s not forget Chuck Bass. Money, power, parties, scandals—Chuck has it all, and absolutely no intention of behaving himself. But Serena’s past isn’t staying buried. Enter Georgina Sparks, the one person who knows exactly what happened before Serena left Manhattan. When Georgina returns, Serena’s carefully constructed new life begins unraveling, forcing her to confront the secrets she ran away from. By the end of the year, friendships have been shattered, relationships have changed, families have fallen apart and gotten back together, and nearly everyone has discovered that their perfect little Upper East Side lives aren’t so perfect after all. But don’t worry, darlings. I saw everything. And I’ll be watching. XOXO, Gossip Girl
