There are so many reasons I did not enjoy this book. The first reason being that perhaps I did not connect with it the way readers who grew up with the various Sweet Valley series would when presented with an "all grown up" Elizabeth and Jessica novel. Growing up I read The Babysitters Club, which m...
This book is both hilarious and terrible: hilarible, shall we say. This is as it should be. It is meant to be a Sweet Valley book, after all, and if you do not think those books are hilarible, you are misremembering or kidding yourself.It is written in the present tense, except for where it is writt...
*Additional note 06/12* For whatever reason, the subject of this book has ended up in a couple of conversations of mine this week. Apparently, people aren't aware that the book was so extremely far off from the original Sweet Valley High series. Maybe it won't be a big deal to some people but I want...
I was raised on British comedy TV, so books provided my US insight. Growing up in Australia, reading Sweet Valley was an escapist bizarro world of cultures that seemed very foreign: cheerleaders, school spirit, every sixteen-year-old had a car, etc. And they were always shopping, even though none of...
This Review is also posted at: || ADDICTED to WORDS:: REVIEWS ||This.. God.Ever since I heard about this book I have wanted to read it. As a long time and dire-hard Sweet Valley fan (going back to SWK to SVT and SVH.. I even loved SVU), so you would imagine this book was just going to follow up on...
Let me begin by staying that I didn't have very high expectations for this book. I picked it up mostly for nostalgia's sake. Like many, I was a fan of the original Sweet Valley High series. I felt like I grew up with the Wakefield sisters and, when I saw Sweet Valley Confidential at the library, I c...
Sweet Valley was a passion of mine as a teenager, so I was secretly thrilled that there was a new book in the series. This one takes place ten years after the Sweet Valley High adventures. The best way to describe this book is that it's so bad that it's good. Don't expect anything amazing from th...
I can't really say much good about this book, but maybe that's because I wasn't a huge Sweet Valley High fan. I read a few of them and really liked Elizabeth, but most times, I just wanted to smack Jessica. In this book, I wanted to smack both of them, so I guess that's progress of some sort.I've re...
I stuck with this because I loved the Sweet Valley Twins and Sweet Valley High books, but it was bad. I didn't care for the writing. And really, just because we used to love something doesn't mean we need to bring it back or remake it or update it.
