[edit] Plot Summary

In It Had To be You, the book explains a lot of the myths that were created during the previous 11 novels.

How Serena van der Woodsen start falling for Nate and what led to their affair, and why she left Constance Billard School for Girls. When Blair Waldorf began to like Audrey Hepburn and when her dad left her mom for another man, when she first fell in love with Nate, and what caused her to start making herself sick. How Nate Archibald came in between Blair and Serena. How Vanessa got into film making and when she shaved her head. Jenny, before her growth spurt kicked in. And of course, when Dan started his caffeine and cigarettes addiction and when he wrote his first poem.

Gossip Girl's identity is not revealed because a new series of spin-offs titled Gossip Girl: The Carlyles is coming out May 6, 2008.
