Skinny Dipping was a lot like Beach Lane. It wasn't an overly amazing read, but it was entertaining. The girls were fun and had more drama that didn't totally feel forced.

I liked it, it's not amazing but I enjoyed it.

This is the second book in The Au Pairs series. The first one was Beach Lane.

In this one I would have liked to see more of the au pairs taking care of the kids, it was more about the girls than anything else but it was okay. There's still so much drama and I'm here for it, there are things I didn't like but overall it was a good second book.

In the first one I didn't like Jacqui that much but she's changed for the better in this one so it was fine. I was surprised about Mara and Eliza on this one though.

And of course, all of the drama could have been avoided if they actually talked but look, it's a fiction book about teens, so I get it.

I will continue reading this series cause they're fast reads and I enjoy them!

How do any of these people have jobs?

Not that this is important, but how could Mara be in the pages of Vogue after two weeks in the Hamptons? Vogue is published once a month and it takes time for everything to be put together. Now if it was vogue.com, sure, but Mara specifies the glossy pages...
And a 'candid' reality show generally airs months after it's shot, not like a day like Sugar's show.

Both books end with the girls proclaiming each other the best friends they've ever had, despite barely getting along in the first 90%. Not very believable.

Ranking them, book 1: Eliza
Mara
Jacqui

book 2: Eliza
Jacqui
Mara

The worst being the one who barely does her job at all because she spends all her time partying and obsessing over a guy, while dripping with disdain over the lessers. The middle being the one who does most of the actual babysitting and is a tad boring.

Oh Mara, Jacqui & Eliza back at it again. All side tracked and thrown for a loop! Can't wait to see what book 3 gives us!!
