Decently written but slightly overrated book series by Cecily Von Ziegesar. These were perhaps the first books to describe the lives of wealthy, slightly screwed-up young adults, but they were certainly not the last. Many similar series have followed, including The Clique, The A-list, and Private.
They are very popular among girls who dislike reading, because they describe a glamorous world and reading them is very wish-fulfilling. However, they've got plenty of literary references in them that sail over the heads of most teenage readers.
They're more or less well-written, give credit where credit is due, but let's get one thing straight: they are not great American literature or anything.

Obsessed and slightly dippy fangirl: I looooove the gossip girl books, they're soooo high lit.
Nice, normal person: they're all right, but perhaps you just wish you were Serena?
Obsessed and slightly dippy fangirl: nooooo! they're deep! they're high literature!
Nice, normal person: yeah... keep telling yourself that.

The book written by the author of the Gossip Girl series as a mashup, in which the two main characters, Serena and Blair become serial killers and kill everyone they hate in Manhattan, trying to keep blood away from their brand new Prada bags or YSLs.
Girl : OMG, Gossip Girl, Psycho Killer is so great!
Other Girl: My favorite part is when Serena kills the guy that didn't wanna pour her a Martini for being underage!
Girl: Too bad her Gucci got dirty!
Other Girl: Tots.

Not to be confused with the mental disorder, OCD, OGD is a lot less serious and more common among youth. Those suffering from OGD-- obsessive gossiping disorder-- can't help but gossip. They are the one's constantly subtweeting on twitter about their best friend's ex-boyfriend's cousin's drug dealer, and the like.
Maya: I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to tell you about that. Oh wait, maybe I did.
Brody: It's okay; it's not your fault you suffer from OGD- Obsessive Gossiping Disorder.

What gets run on you when you get drunk at a company outing, mess up at work, or even have something beneficial happen to you. Gossip used to be spread slowly at the water cooler, but emails to half a company is the main mechanism by which this gossip is spread. The occurrence of an event can be spread to everyone you don't want it to to within 5 minutes of the start of the work day with a single email.
By 8 a.m., all of the secretaries at work were running the gossip train on Jim when he got drunk at a company outing on Friday night and felt up the boss's wife and made out with the back of her neck after he puked in their washing machine.
