Toby+Anna=Cute Couple!!!
Drama Queen is THE best book yet. It talx mostly about Olympics Week and Toby and Anna. I think Toby and Anna are a GREAT couple! However, what the bad part I didn't like was that Toby was acting like a know-it-all since Anna got the part of Maria. And when I say Toby and Anna a good couple, I mean it though I wish Toby wouldn't act so,"I'm a lead actor so I'm the best actor," mode thing. But read the book and you'll see what happens b/w Lacey and Jess.
Lacey and Jessica.....
may actually become FRIENDS! I'm serious i think that they could, they gave each other a high-five didn't they? I don't understand why lacey has to be such a snot, because if she wasn't a snot she and jessica would have been friends from the start. Lavey actually acts like a kid sometimes, but like bethell said, awww our lil lacey is growing up. Lacey became a tad bit nicer in this book {suprise suprise}! About Toby and Anna, they have a fight but lets not get into details! {don't worry they are still together!}
AWESOME BOOK
This book was the best out of the jr. high series. I am so glad that Anna finally has a life. I'm really glad that Francine Pascal is focusing on other characters than Liz and Jessica Wakefield. I really liked this book, but it was one of those books you better be prepared not to be able to put it down.

Da Bomb!
This book was da bomb!:) I really love it! You should read it too. It's so exciting that you don't want to put the book down. It's a romantic book I've ever read of Sweet Valley High. I hope you will read it too.
Can't get enough of Sweet Valley High!
I just love the Sweet Valley High books. This one is called IN LOVE WITH THE ENEMY, and it's book #1 in the 'Betrayel' saga. In this one, Jessica falls in love with the wrong guy (as usual). She's dating Sweet Valley High's quarterback star, Ken Matthews. But then she falls for hot and sexy Christain Gorman, when he teaches her how to surf. Little does Jessica know that Christain is the the leader of Palisades High's most violent gang - and they're biggest rivals is Sweet Valley High! It's very exciting and romantic. Definitely one to pick up and read if you're a Sweet Valley High fan or enjoy reading romantic/tragedies. Awesome read! Solidly written.
I luved this book!
I really liked this book, but something was missing. Why does what happens have to happen? It's unfair. And about Ken and Jessica...if Jessica doesn't care for Ken anymore, why not tell him instead of cheating on him! And Christian. He really loves Jessica. Even when he finds out Jessica has a boyfriend and was going out with Ken while going out with him he still loves her. That not a high-school sweetheart. That's not a little-kids crush. That's love. Real love. And Christian is SO caring. So sweet. But Ken is to. This book is great, but it's weepy when you find out what happened to Christian, something that'll affect Jessica for the rest of her life.

Very thrilling!
It was bound to happen-- one of Ned's cases coming back to haunt him. Made my skin crawl how close Marin was able to get to Jessica and Liz and how he worked a little psychological terror into his game. This book sets you on edge; I read it cover to cover without stopping.
A real THRILLER!!!!!
This book is a real thriller. It's like a horror movie that fits in your hand. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. You can't seem to put it down. It's about a handsom murderer who is after the twins blood and won't stop until he gets it. He already got close to one of them but was delayed, but not stopped. He's not gonna rest until both of the twins are dead. Why is he after the twins? Does he get the twins? What does the twins do? Read the book and find out. You won't be disappointed!
terrifying and fantastic!
What was the name of that movie in which a killer is out for revenge on ..ive got it ..hang on..Cape Fear!This is SUCH a copy and it is very scary!John Marin is out for blood,since Ned Wakefield,lawyer,put him away so many years ago. Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield are not safe,and youll be glued to the pages when Marin starnds them on a houseboat.

Really Good Book!!
I really, really, really liked this book. It was very realistic. I feel very sorry for Liz, and I think that Jess should move back in and kick that Witch... Celine out of there. Also, she should have Tom Watts as her boyfriend. They r perfect 4 eachother. But theres one thing that bothers me: Doesnt Tom Watts sound a little like Todd Wilkins? I think the author should be a little more original with the names.
Realistic and great!
This book is excellent! I just wish Elizabeth and Todd were still together. Todd and Elizabeth were such a great couple. Elizabeth Wakefield is extremely excited to get to college. She has the perfect look, a cool identical twin sister, a great boyfriend, a wonderful best friend, excellent grades, and high expectations. But all that starts to change. Jessica Wakefield moves out of the dorm room with Elizabeth and into a dorm room with her cool friends. She falls in love with a cute guy, Michael McAllery. She has the attention of every guy on campus, but non are as great as Mike to her. Everyone warns her that Mike is bad news, but she knows he's wonderful. Todd Wilkins wants to have sex with his long-time girlfriend, Elizabeth. They ahve been dating forever and he's ready to take their relationship to the next level. But she's not. He's ready to break up with her, and find a more experianced woman. Enid Rollins, former best friend of ELizabeth, has now changed her name to Alexandra. She no longer wants to hangout with Elizabeth, and wants to join the in crowd. Winston Egbert wants to be a manly man on campus... but eh ends up in an all female dorm. Elizabeth who's twin sister moved out of the dorm, boyfriend dumped her, and best friend dumped her, is falling into a depression. Tom Watts, Todd's rival likes with Elizabeth. He thinks she's beautiful, but I think Todd and Elizabeth are better. Elizabeth and Todd forever! Meanwhile, William White also admires Elizabeth. But William has an obsession with her beyond normal. Todd Wilkins loves Elizabeth, and they make such a cute couple. I was really sad when they broke up. Meanwhile, Liz gets a new roomate, Celine Boudreuax. But Liz can't stand her. Cleine and Elizabeth are worst enemies. Anyway, Jessica is in love with Michael McAllery and wants him more then anything. This book is great!
Excellent and realistic!
This book was great. So many different things happened. Todd Wilkins wants to take his relationship with Elizabeth Wakefield to the next step, but Elizabeth isn't ready to do so.

Best Sweet Valley University romance novel!
I absolutely loved BEHIND CLOSED DOORS...it was such a romantic book! In this one, Jessica is mistakenly signed up to take a course in Medevil History when she asked for Film History. But then she learns that her Medevil History professor, the new, young, hot, sexy, mysterious, and popular, Louis Miles, feels attraction toward her...and she begins to feel attraction AND confusion when she knows he likes her but keeps trying to push her away because of some dark secret from his past.
And all this while, Elizabeth and Todd are trying to track down who attacked Todd. And Winston cheats on his pyhsics exam because he is failing pyhsics and if he does not pass, then his parents will send him to a different school and he won't be able to see Denise, his girlfriend, anymore. Tom goes off to Las Vages for a reporting job.
Great, well-written novel! I congradaulate Laurie John for an excellent novel and a terrific addition to the SWEET VALLEY UNIVERSITY series. If you're an SVU fan, this is definitely for you! The romance and affection between Jessica and Professor Louis Miles will have you engrossed 'til the end and be begging for more! I totally recommend this book.

I think that this book is different then the others.
For once, there is something wrong with rich, popular Lila Fowler. I think that more people should have had more faith in Lila, and not gone against her. It had a lot of suspence, and irony. You don't expect this to happen to Lila, maybe one of the other characters, but not Lila. This book is a little different than the othes, and its a nice change.
An ideal date turns nasty.....
I thought that everyone's reaction to Lila's story wasparticularly truthful. Especially since some of her closest friendsrefused to believe that it really happened. It seems such a shame that Lila had to get another girl as evidence. I mean, if these so-called friends of hers had believed her in the first place, then she wouldn't have had to suffer. I definitely recommend this book to others. It also questions the notion of friendship as well as date rape.
Teen Series examines date rape
One of a rush of SVH books dealing with adolescent issues. Snobbish flirt Lila's romance with wholesome John turns nasty when he tries to force himself on her. Shattered, Lila falls into deep depression, made far worse when she finds the courage to speak up about the attack, only to find her peers turn against her. The lightweight series deals surprisingly well with the difficult issue of date rape, depicting it in ways that should move and affect its audience of young girls without distressing them too much. The surprising choice of having manipulative bad-girl Lila attacked by long-time "good guy" John, hero of a volume or two of SVH himself, works very well.

This book was so good I didn't put it down...
I loved this book, I just bought it yesterday. I couldn't putit down, it was so full of feeling. The end was very shocking Icouldn't read it with out crying, I knew what all the characters were going though. I lost a friend last year to drugs. This book teaches very good lessons on the dangers of drugs and how takeing risks can be fatel. If you read this book I hope it teaches you something.
Realistic
I thought that the book was very good. It showed some good moral values without being boring. The book explains to teens how to deal with problems they face at school and at home. It also had a good storyline that was very creative and realistic at the same time. I recommend this book. It was very interesting and I learned something from this book along with having some fun. It wasn't super boring, and it wasn't unrealistic, either. Things in that book happen. It was fun to read. It wasn't one of those books where everything went perfectly and nothing went wrong. In fact, it was almost exactly the opposite. I like Regina's character. She acts like any other normal teenager. She isn't stupid even though she makes some mistakes. She isn't a goody goody, but she isn't super bad. She's normal. That's what I like about her. It mellows the book out without making it really boring. That is what I like about the book.
An awesome book!
Francine Pascals really did herself out this time. I loved this bok. It was so well written! I got so into the book that i felt bad for regina. I felt like i was at the drug party she went to and i was teary eyed when she died. Sweet valley is a GREAT series!
