Welcome GLUS! If you ever wondered how the Pretty Committee summered between seventh and eighth grade, the Clique Summer Collection is for you. It featured five novellas: Massie, Claire, Alicia, Dylan, and Kristen, which came in an ah-dorable jewley box with a cosmetic bag full of Glossip Girl lip gloss. Don’t remember? Lisi busts hers out and models it for you. Caution: you will be jealous.
Ah-bviously we’re starting with MASSIE.
Short story shorter: She gets the hoof from riding camp after she glues a girl to her saddle. In their biggest parenting move yet, the Blocks take Massie’s credit cards away until she repays them for camp. And she does. By selling makeup to twelve-year-olds.
WARNING: If you or someone you love is sensitive to face-shaming, outdated Puff Daddy references, or tweens who openly humiliate their friends to sell beauty products, the novella might not be for you.
But the conversation is.
Lisi and Ellen debate the pros and cons of Massie Block’s approach and share a technique for giving advice that will help you get your point across without getting canceled.
Enjoy at your own risk!
xoxo Lisi & Ellen
