16-year-old Molly Dix loves her ordinary life in suburban Indiana, so when her single mother passes away, she is shocked to discover that her biological father is Brick Berlin, world famous movie star and red carpet regular.

Equally intrigued and terrified by her Hollywood lineage, Molly moves to Southern California and plunges head-first into the deep end of Beverly Hills celebrity life. Just as Molly thinks her new life and family couldn't get any stranger, she meets Brooke Berlin, her gorgeous and spoiled half-sister whom welcomes Molly to la-la land with a healthy dose of passive-aggressive "sisterly love."

Set against the backdrop of a sparkling and fashion-filled Los Angeles, this deliciously dysfunctional family soap opera will satisfy every reader looking for their next lifestyles-of-the-rich-and-famous beach read.

Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan are fashion writers in Los Angeles California. Their blog www.gofugyourself.com draws an average of four million readers a month, and their dispatches from the front rows of Fashion Week are routinely the most-read stories on New Yorkmagazine's web site. Heather and Jessica have been called "fashion assassins" by Joan Rivers and "a viciously funny duo" by theHollywood Reporter. Spoiled is their first novel for young adults.

Let me first say I am a huge fan of 

gofugyourself.com, so when I found out they were going to have a book coming out soon I jumped at the chance to review it! The authors are hilarious, I follow them on twitter! I expected drama, fashion, and humor from this novel. All of the things mentioned where present in this novel, but also a deeper story was unraveled.  This YA debut is defiantly one to add to your beach bag!

This story has been told before, fish-out-of water, thrown into the mix of an upscale Hollywood life. Still, with this being said I enjoyed this book. All the drama, the schemes, everything! What I was surprised about after I read this novel was how attached I got to some of the characters, and also how much I learned from the pages of SPOILED. 

You are first introduced to Brooke. She has been living the life, or so it seems. You feel sorry for her then you hate her, then you love her. She is quite the character, I will tell you that. Molly is just the type of character I love to read about, good natured, and even a little venerable. I admired both characters throughout the novel, but my biggest let down was how they handled their relationship with their father. Brick, actor/movie director, is to be frankly honest an air-head. Both girls crave the attention of their father, and they NEVER said anything about this to him throughout the whole novel. This was a huge disappointment for me. I would have spilled my heart out to my father, but we do have a very strong bond. 

The cruelty of some of the characters in this novel stunned me! How can someone be so heartless and cruel? You are just going to have to read and find out what and who is the untold evil. :D

The cover is cute a clever! All of the colors in the make-up is beautiful.

I took this book to the pool with me. While I was laying out I read this. I became so absorbed in the book that I laid out longer then I should have and got a nasty sunburn! 

I really did enjoy this book. It does have more to it than just endless drama. It has a heart touching ending, and characters.
