What Parents Need to Know
About The Invasion of the Boy Snatchers: A Clique Novel
Parents need to know that this book features lots of labels, including constant references to high-end fashion, singers, technology, and even junk food. Even though the main characters are only 12, the book glamorizes style, romance, and popularity. The Pretty Committee is definitely not about girl power: One character has a weight obsession, and the friends don't seem that concerned when one of the members has a fever-induced hallucination.

- Families can talk about the amount of products mentioned here. Have you heard of the brands? Is it realistic that a 12-year-old would have so much stuff? What sort of impact does all this label-dropping have on readers? Do you envy these girls?

THE CLIQUE IS AWESOME!
I'm sorry lady but ur review sucks! frankly i am insulted and mad... lisi harrison is my favorite writer and u totally dissed her! i think u need to read the rest of the series and then come back and say whatever u want! U r rating this book as a adult... not as a tween which is who reads these books! the clique is not stupid or badly wwritten... i don't thinnk a bestselling series would be badly written! before u go off and give another bad review about books like these think! What would i think about this book is i was a tween? not I'm an old person and this book is stupid!
