Everyone who's anyone has heard of the Clique series. Though they may seem childish and very unrealistic, you have to admit, their your guilty pleasure. What makes you love the series so much? There are many things from me (you can tell, since my name is after Alicia's screenname), but one of the big ones are their language. I like to call them "Clique-isms." Here's my list of Clique-isms I found, as well as their definition. Hope you n-joy! Latah!
Note: Clique-isms mostly from the first 9 books, and the Kristen summer book. Read the end of the article on submitting your own Clique-ism that I missed, or make up your own!
