When two guys who are friends with the four suddenly dissapear and a body is found in Central Parkthe teens want to know more about the society wich they never can get out of, but will they discover the secret?
The Secret Society is a book that fans of the Gossip Girl series and fans of Another faust certainly will love. You can ask yourself if Secret Society is a new original piece of YA. I personally think it isn't. The story leaps to much from character to character and misses a point that really gets you as a reader. An enjoyable read for if you want more of the Gossip Girl stuff en mysterious societys and whealthy teens, not if you want something new.
