Gossip Girl The Complete Collection: A Gossip Girl Novel Paperback – December 23, 2009

Well, everyone loves Gossip Girl (though the TV series is said to be better then the books by most - but the books did start it), so I will concentrate on the box set.It's fantastic value (especially at Amazon's discounted price) as it contains all Gossip Girl books (except the spin-offs and the newest college book - still only in hardcover) and all of them with the special TV series covers - that can be posters, as they have high quality large scale photos on their back sides. The covers feature Serena, Blair, Chuck, Nate, Dan, Jenny & Vanessa at least once each (with many of them way more then once) in high quality photos of memorable moments from the TV series (appropriate to the book they are one).So, everyone knows the books and the concept, but I decided to review just the "look" of the product. As it is really a nice & unique item. Few series's get such VIP treatment. Also everything comes in a box. It's cardboard, with photos on most sides and it's the best made and least delicate of all "box set" boxes I've ever seen. You can use it for storage for many years to come.So, to sum it up: if you don't have the books or just want them in covers with the actors from the CW series, buy the box set - it's the best offer.

Nice box and book jackets, quite durable bonding of the books (paperback)

I loved this box set. I started reading these after I watched the show. But, I only got to read the first two and the last two books because everywhere I went never had them. If you like the show you'll love the books. Sure it isn't as dramatic as the show, but they are fun reads. Now I can say that I've read and own the entire series. I love the covers. Except some of the darker ones look a little pixelated (sp?) But this is a beautiful box set for a great price. (As opposed to buying each set individually.)The box arrived in great condition. I love the little posters on each cover. Plus all of these books are really fast reads. I read the whole series in about two weeks. I didn't find one book I didn't like.

I recently watched the tv series and thought I would give the books a try. For the price this was the way to go. I've only read a couple so far but it is so nice to have them all except the last two at my hands instead of having to run out and buy them. The box set is beautiful. The price was amazing for this many books too. I would absolutely buy these for a gift or again if I needed too.

I might have misread the description, but I thought all the books were hardcover. Only one was - the last one, but I don't really mind. I also thought they came in the collection box shown in the image, which is also not true. Not a big deal, I suppose. I'm a big fan of full collections (especially getting them all at once) so I'm glad to have all the books all at once to enjoy. They're a great read and a must-read if you're in love with the TV series. Much different, but still great.

Please note that the final book in the series, I Will Always Love You is NOT included in this set. I purchased that book separately before ordering this set.You get what you pay for, and I absolutely love this book set!! Perfect to sit on a book shelf in the living room or in your bedroom. Each book cover is also a poster to hang up on your wall. I love the Gossip Girl series and this was exactly what I was looking for, glad to finally have it!

I really love the Gossip Girl series on TV so I decided to buy the books to see how cool they are and I'm so not disappointed! This collector's box absolutely rocks, it's a real piece of collection you got to own if you like the saga. 12 books including an incredible boxset and 12 exclusive posters from the TV show really worth the small price. And the box came in perfect condition too! I highly recommend this purchase.

Boxed set was nice, but box broke within 2 weeks (resembled a thick Styrofoam material?). Could use a better box construction, but the books in the correct order create a beautiful picture. All paperback books. Love this series!
