    This is a thrilling mystery!

    This book combines a girly sense of fashion and yet it still has murder and mystery. I highly suggest this to any girl who loves to read because I am sure it will have something you like. It trulely is wonderful because it's like Paris Hilton and James Bond all put together.

    Being a celebutante isn't all it's cracked up to be. Sure, you get to live a very rich lifestyle with all the cool parties, nice clothes, hot dates, and special privileges. But being a suspect in a murder trial does not make being a celebutante worth it.

    Triplets Madison, Park, and Lexington Hamilton know this firsthand, and wearing a tight dress with the perfect pumps just won't get them out of this one.

    A murder has happened at one of the many social events that Madison has organized -- and it isn't very pretty. Well, the scarf tied around fashion editor Zahra Bell isn't, that is. Along with Zahra, the Avenue Diamond, the most prized possession that can work miracles, is gone. Unfortunately, the Hamilton triplets were at the wrong place at the wrong time. Who knew that being discovered in the same closet as the murder victim would automatically make you a suspect?

    And now, since the police are taking forever to find who the killer is, it's up to the Hamilton triplets to save the day, and their name. There is just one drawback to this investigation. Let's just say that Zahra Bell wasn't the most well-liked person on the universe and anyone could have wanted her dead. And having tons of secrets spilling out that hurts reputations doesn't exactly make things progress faster. But the sisters can't worry about that too much, since their entire wardrobe is on the line, and being the next victim is becoming more and more of a possibility.

    Take three Nancy Drews and put them into a GOSSIP GIRL situation and what successfully comes out is THE CELEBUTANTES: ON THE AVENUE. Antonio Pagliarulo makes us see that the rich and famous can solve mysteries, too, except in style. With a bond like the Charmed sisters, the Hamilton triplets are literature's newest "It Girls." THE CELEBUTANTES is the series that everyone should keep an eye on.

    BEST NEW SERIES!!

    I really loved this book. Reminded me a lot of Gossip Girl because the main characters are rich and famous and there's a lot of cool fashion reference stuff but this book is a lot BETTER than Gossip Girl and Clique because this is an actual story. it's a mystery a really good one too, I couldn't figure it out at all. the three main characters are Madison, Park and Lex Hamilton and they rule New York City. I love that these sisters are funny and smart and that they know how to solve the crime. even tho' they're beautiful and famous, they have brains. i found myself laughing out loud at some parts and I love the romance between Madison and her boyfriend. parts of the book were hot, and then there was a lot of suspense which had me turning the pages. i can't wait for the second book!

    On the Avenue (Celebutantes Series #1)

    okay well i agree with the other two reviews about this book because i loved it too. i like the main characterss because they have brains. theyre not air-headed girls who act like bitches all the time even though they're famous and rich. the mystery was really good too. i agree that this is better than gossip girl which i used to read but got tired of. so i'm lookin forward to the next book in this series.
