The Clique is sooooo back.
No, seriously, the beloved young adult book series which spawned a movie adaptation in 2008, is being revived in the year of 2024.
The news was announced in a TikTok posted on Oct. 23, with actress Ellen Marlow revealing that she and The Clique author Lisi Harrison would be writing a new book in the series, featuring the book’s main characters in their 20s.
“The girls want to know what Massie Block is doing for real,” Ellen asks Lisi in the video. “Can you tell them?”
“What Massie Block is doing for real is she is dancing around my head and dancing around Ellen’s head,” Ellen replies. “And together we are birthing her and writing another book that will tell you exactly what she and the Pretty Committee are doing, now that they are 27-year-old women.”
“Thank you all for the love and support over the years,” Ellen’s caption writes. “We can’t wait to give you the update on the girlies.”
ICYMI, The Clique book series follows Claire Lyons after she moves from Florida to New York and meets a group of wealthy girls — known as the Pretty Committee.
@ellen_marlowReplying to @Ambie San Diego 🌊☀️🤎💛 After years of seeing countless comments and dm’s, we too decided that we did not feel like The Pretty Committee’s story was ready to come to a close. After almost two years of plotting, writing and re-writing outlines, and endless Zoom calls – Lisi and I are THRILLED to announce that a new ADULT CLIQUE NOVEL is on its way. Thank you all for the love and support over the years. We can’t wait to give you the update on the girlies. 🤍 #theclique #thecliqueseries #thecliquebooks #thecliquemovie #novel #adultnovels #booktok #reboot #cliquetok #cuhlaire #kuhlaire #fyp #foryoy #fypシ
