Lisi Harrison (author of \"The Clique\" series for young teens and MTV producer) writes fairly good books. What she doesn\'t uderstand is that her impression of America\'s youth is one sided. She only has Caucasion characters and one Asian as an assistant. She thinks that Westchester is 100% white, which is untrue.

growing up reading these i never realized how whitewashed they were until now. total lack of reality in these stories.

PLEASE Lisi!!!! make these characters realistic. Westchester isnt just one demographic and these girls deserve friends that look like real people.

its 2011 and its super weird that everyone in the book looks exactly the same. would be nice to see some actual representation for once.

the books are fun but honestly kinda boring since everyone is identical. mix it up a bit.
