    About this ebook

    The Dirty Girls are back, saucier and sexier than ever….but would it be wrong to ask them to be a little smarter, too?? Especially when it comes to men. And sex.

    Lauren Fernandez is at the top of her game as the cleverest columnist the Boston Gazette has on board—but she can't quite figure out how to pick a guy or how to eat (and not drink) like a healthy person. Usnavys is still sashaying all over town, 260 pounds of her dolled up in designer duds and ready for action—from anyone except her husband Juan, that is. He's become just a bit boring staying home scrubbing the tub and cooking up chicken fingers for pre-schooler Carolina while somebody else brings home the bacon.

    Maybe the other Dirty Girls could help Lauren and ‘navy out, but they've got their own messes to deal with: Rebecca Baca hasn't gained a pound since college (well, who would, if they had an ounce of self-control?) but suspects her picture-perfect marriage may not yield the baby she longs for; Sara may be the star of her own decorating show on cable television, but her dangerous pull toward her ex-husband Roberto isn't so pretty; Amber keeps renaming herself and doesn't want to hear that her soulfulness and reinvention aren't enough to make fans actually buy her music; and Elizabeth is discovering that a relationship with another woman takes more than bravery and a nesting instinct.

    Dirty Girls on Top is about trying to figure it all out without quite as much time left as there was five years ago. And it's about sex and love—getting it, not getting it, yearning for it, having it with the wrong person, fighting it from the right person, trying it a new way, giving up on it. And, in the end, if your fingers are crossed and the planets are in alignment, having it come out just the way it should.

      The Sucias are back in a big way. It was good to hear from them again even though their lives have gotten a lot more intense since Dirty Girls Social Club. This book dealt with some very serious and dramatic issues and not one of these girls are having an easy time of it. Being a Latina in America is just a small part of the issues in their lives. They deal with everything from spousal abuse to the ups and downs of celebrity. Sometimes it was a little too over the top -- even in this crowd, but maybe that was because Usnays was the main narrator. She's someone I'd really like to have in my life. You can't help but love her. Over the top or not, at least the issues were dealt with in an honest way -- the way that real, not perfect women would deal with these situations in their own lives.I have only 2 complaints with this book -- 1) I didn't feel the friendship between all of these women anymore. I couldn't even see why they all still stayed in touch. Ultimately they were there for each other, but the friendship that was so strong in the first book was missing here. 2) The plots and pacing were a little uneven -- some scenes were so compelling I couldn't put the book down and some were dull and drawn out.Overall, it is a good read and I definitely recommend it to anyone who read Dirty Girls Social Club or anyone looking for a good vacation or bathtub read.
    • 3/5
      A sequel to "The Dirty Girls Social Club," I found myself not into this book as much as I was with Rodriguez's first offering. One aspect that completely turned me off was the horrible latin accent provided by the narrator. It was tolerable for Lauren's character since she's not supposed to be fluent in Spanish but it grated on my nerves overall in this one. Overall an easy and fun read that should take no more than a few hours to read and enjoy.
    • 3/5
      After reading the first book in this series (the dirty girls social club), I was excited to find a sequel. I love a good book that shows the value of female friendship. The girls have their ups and downs, but in the end they are all there for each other. I also like that the author writes of heavier, real life issues that women face and don't just concentrate on looks, sex and shoes.
    • 5/5
      Loved this book! The characters are unique and well developed, and all have compelling stories. I have not yet read the earlier book, Dirty Girls Social Club, which is about the women 5 years earlier in life, but that did not detract from reading this book, and I may also read that one.
    • 5/5
      The Sucias are here again, and as you read this story - you want to drink it in like a top shelf mojito (or at least hope it's happy hour so you get 2 for 1). I love all the characters (even the ones I don't want to like) and how they all develop and change. They've moved on in their lives from the first book, and are having new adventures. I really enjoyed the structure of the book -- each character is her own narrator, which makes the story more complete. And like with many friendships -- we all view thing differently, so having the various characters tell the story gives us the readers the full story. Like the first book -- I enjoyed the attitude of this book and can't wait to see what the Sucias are up to in the next book.
    • 4/5
      I LOVED the first book in this series (The Dirty Girl's Social Club) and so when I found out there was a sequel, I couldn't wait to read it! The girls are back and just as good (If not better) than they were in the first book! I think I'm drawn to this book because it deals with women I can really relate to. The characters are well drawn and are very complex. The problems they face are real-life and not just superficial. I highly recommend this fun and light-hearted series!
    • 4/5
      I enjoyed this book! It was a fun read and kept me interested throughout its entirety. I couldn't help but like the characters, but at points wanted to jump into the book and shake them. The Sucia's downfalls are at times so depressing, its hard to understand how someone could get that low. If you want an easy, fun,quick, and interesting read, this is definitely the book for you!
    • 3/5
      I might have gotten more out of this sequel to "The Dirty Girls Social Club" if I had read the first book (which I own). Six Latina friends gather at a New Mexico resort, and then go on with their busy lives in Boston and elsewhere. The narrative is lively and peppered with Spanish ("m'ija"). I get the feeling we'll be hearing more from these "sucias."
    • 4/5
      Las sucias are back again and in this adventure, each are struggling with decisions about their relationships and identity. Sara has moved on with her life after Roberto almost killed her, or has she? Elizabeth and her disinterested partner, Selwyn, have adopted a baby. Usnavys is in rare form, discontent with monogamy and marriage. Rebecca struggles with her feelings of imperfection over infertility. Cuicatl over her role as a latina pop star. And Lauren is a mess with Amaury's infidelity and her struggles with bulmia. The sucias are trying to come to terms with these issues, which build up to a nice climax about 3/4 into the book. It starts out a little slow but picks up. Some of the forshadowing is annoying because it is transparent and occurs too early in the book and isn't resolved until the end. However, this was generally an entertaining read.
    • 4/5
      The dirty girls are back, and there sure are a lot of them - Cuicatl (formerly known as Amber), Usnavys, Sara, Elizabeth, Lauren, and Rebecca. Cuicatl is struggling to revive her music career, which seems to have hit the rocks due to the inaccessibility of her latest songs, while Usnavys is up to no good in an irritatingly predictable subplot (though she redeems herself by the end of the story). Sara is caught up in her (literally) murderous ex-husband Roberto, while Elizabeth gives in to her passion for Lauren, and later regrets it. Rebecca, the primmest of the group, comes to terms with her infertility, and seeks alternate options.While the cast of characters at times feels like a circus, Valdes-Rodriguez's gift for engaging characterization and tight plotting are on full display here. At times I was amazed by the stupidity of the women's behavior, particularly Usnavys and Sara, but the author keeps her characters self-aware and they learn even more about themselves as they go along. It sounds like there may be a sequel in the works.
    • 4/5
      I should first mention that I didn't read the first book. however, I had no problem quickly figuring out the various characters and their varying personalities. I found their voices were unique and distinct. Each woman had a mess in her personal life to work though. I felt that some characters, such as Usnavys and Lauren were given quite a bit of time, while others, like Rebeca, I would have liked to hear more from.The story was comical, I laughed out loud several times but also tackled many serious issues. I felt great empathy for each of these very different women as they worked to resolve the issues i their lives.A fun book!
    • 3/5
      Not as good as her other books, but still a fun read as is usual with Alisa.
    • 4/5
      The story continues of the sucias from the Dirty Girls Social Club. The characters are still trying to solve many of the same relationship difficulties. I felt like this book was an easier read than Dirty Girls Social Club and that the Spanish was more reader friendly for a non-spanish speaker. The characters are funny but fall for many of the same pitfalls over and over.
    • 3/5
      It doesn't take long to find yourself halfway through Dirty Girls on Top. It's a bit like catching up with your most disfunctional friends at their absolute lowest points and being unable to do anything but listen and watch, praying they'll make the right choices. The problem with this is that you know that they're going to stumble. A lot. Some more than others, and some are going to be hard to like while they're down and out. Rebecca especially is hard to take in anything other than small doses, although her agony over the state of her family goes a long way in smoothing things over. Usnavys manages to be a fantastic friend and an awful wife, but just as you're ready to declare her husband a saint, you start to wonder if maybe he didn't help push her away more than you originally thought. It's little things like this that save the book from being too painful to read. Just as each woman tiptoes to the edge of annoyance, something brings her back to sanity. Even Sara, who spends the first half of the book being painfully misguided, has a moment of clarity, though perhaps it comes a little too late to save her from even more pain. Dirty Girls on Top is well worth the read, though it's definitely not without moments where you wish it were possible to reach out and smack a fictional character. It's fast paced and the alternating views keep things interesting, and with the differing opinions and voices floating around in the book, there's bound to be at least one character you find yourself loving.
    • 5/5
      I thoroughly enjoyed Dirty Girls On Top, Alisa Valdes -Rogriquez' sequel to The Dirty Girls Social Club. The author continued the tales of the six young ladies to whom she introduced us in the first installment of the Dirty Girls, and she stayed true to the characters, their actions, and their reactions. I found this novel to be highly entertaining, somewhat thought provoking, laugh out loud funny, and absolutely engaging. I liked how Valdes-Rodriguez was able to refresh the reader's memory with subtle references to occurances in the first book without using tedious flashbacks or beating the reader over the head with in-depth details. She used just enough to bring the first book back to life and remind me why I enjoyed these characters in the first place. This novel does, however, contain a considerable amount of foul language and sexual scenes, so I would not recommend this novel to anyone who may find this sort of writing offensive. I will be looking for this author's next publication.
    • 3/5
      I received this as an early book reviewer not realizing that there was a prequel so I purchased that book and read it first. I think overall this is a great series with more story to tell so I hope the author continues. It's kind of like Sex in the City meets the Latina culture. I like the diversity of characters and their lives. My only negative comment would be that when she had them speak in Spanish often times it was a trite, cliched word or sentence. Even if she has to translate or let the context speak for the words spoken in Spanish, she should be more representative of actual dialogue and not the stereotypical catch phrases everyone knows. I think it dumbs down the story.
    • 5/5
      Fabulous tale of four friends living very different lives in Boston.
    • 5/5
      I read the Dirty Girls Social Club back when it first came out, and loved it. Even though I am not Latina, I still felt I could relate to the characters. Now, with the sequel, I still feel the same way.I love how each character has her own voice. The author switches so easily between voices and tone for each character, that you almost feel like each woman is talking directly to you. And, the problems and situations these women face, while sometimes extrordinary, are also down-to-earth and I could see facets of my own life experiences in each of them.The only thing that bothered me was the liberal use of Spanish throughout. I know what the author was trying to accomplish, and most of the time I could figure out meanings from context, but there were some instances where I had NO clue what the Spanish words meant, which was a bit frustrating.And like the other reviewers said, this book is racy! Right from the first few pages there's sex and foul language. That didn't bother me at all, but if you are a sensitive reader, be warned.Overall, a great book! I laughed out loud, I was sad, I was happy, I was shocked. This book has it all. Engaging plot that kept me up reading way past when I should have turned out the light. :) I would highly recommend this book to any woman, Latina or not.
