THE PRETTY COMMITTEE STRIKES BACK
The Lip Slip.
Hey GLUs!
Welcome back to the Clique book club. Start making a packing list because we’re headed to Lake Placid in THE PRETTY COMMITTEE STRIKES BACK.
Now that Nina is out of the picture, we can finally take a deep breath!
Just kidding!
Kuh-laire’s random hookup with Josh Hotz in Invasion of the Boy Snatchers was so Nina-coded it’s like she never left. That’s what Cam gets for falling for a fake soccer spell that convinces him to ice Claire out. And what does Claire get for rebounding with Alicia’s crush? Kuh-a-os. That’s what.
As one would expect, Claire’s wandering lips have devastated Cam, and now he’s icing her! So, Claire does what so many of us do when we’re in a relationship crisis: she cuts bangs—but asking Layne to do it with a Swiss Army Knife and e-mailing Cam a poem? If a guy took me back after that, would I even want him? On top of it all, Massie insists that Alicia cannot find out about the lip slip.
Lucky for Massie, things with Derrington are back on track, which means her kiss is on his list. Unfortunately, posting wasn’t a thing yet because could you imagine? A sunset selfie with Derrinton in Lake Placid? Post-Kiss? #Iconic.
The problem is that Massie has no clue how to kiss—not that she’d ever let that cat out of the Birkin bag. To prove she has experience, Massie hosts a “Kissing Clinic” for the OCD girls before the trip. Oy.
Let’s discuss.
If Claire’s poem doesn’t win Cam back, what should her next move be? Clearly, a straight-up apology hasn’t crossed her mind. Why?
Why is Massie keeping Claire’s secret from Alicia? Who is she really protecting? Why?
The OCD girls trust Massie to advise them on kissing. But she has no idea what she’s doing. If you were her fake-it-’till-you-make-it coach, what advice would you give?
LFG (Let’s F-ing Gossip)!

Hands down my fave book of the whole series!!!
So excited for this book! Probably my favorite book in the series.
1. If Claire’s poem doesn’t win Cam back, what should her next move be? Clearly, a straight-up apology hasn’t crossed her mind. Why? Claire should ask Cam to talk one-on-one, I think the problem is that they haven't talked about what happened. Obviously Cam hasn't been super willing to talk, but I think most of their problems in the last book stemmed from communication issues. I still find the poem really sweet tho!
2. Massie's keeping Claire's secret mostly for her own protection. I think she trusts Claire to keep her secret because she also knows Claire's biggest secret. If Claire told Massie's secret, she could easily tell Alicia about Josh.
3. 'd tell her to keep the advice relatively simple, because the more she says the more people can poke holes in her story.
