Head Over Heels | Francine Pascal

Liz leads a fundraiser for the Fowler Memorial Hospital but still finds time to worry about Regina Morrow dating Bruce Patman. So far in #SVH, Bruce‘s been a braggart & downright creep—plus this is Regina‘s first time at school for hearing students, & her first boyfriend! Jessica meddles by starting a rumor about why Bruce dates Regina, but in the end Bruce puts Regina first so she can go to Switzerland for a year of surgery to repair her hearing!

The #SVH cheerleading squad has two openings & while Jessica‘s certain Cara Walker will get her spot back (she & Lila were kicked off by turning the sprinklers on the Palisades High cheerleaders), she‘s equally determined that “Easy” Annie Whitman will not make the cut— even if her tryouts are the best! Liz has been tutoring the sophomore who seems clueless to the chatter about her dating life (she innocently brags about two dates in one night!)⬇️

TorieStorieS Jessica threatens to quit if Annie makes the squad… but Annie is so heartbroken to not make it, that she purposely overdoses on pills. Team manager Ricky Capaldo‘s own crush on Annie leads him to save her life! Jessica, overcome with guilt, guarantees that Annie will be on the squad if she regains consciousness, which she does. Even Annie‘s model mother promises to pay more attention to her daughter. Liz is at her saintly best throughout. 1mo
Erinreadsthebooks Liz is always at her saintly best 😂😇 1mo
JenlovesJT47 I feel so bad for Annie! Jess was truly awful in the first 10 books or so! 1mo
TorieStorieS @JenlovesJT47 I suppose this gives Jessica some character growth over the series— that and all the dead boyfriends she accumulates! 🤣 Though Annie is really treated terribly… plus I had forgotten all about her coma! I know I had read it before, but hadn‘t remembered much! 1mo

Todd‘s traded his Datsun in for a Yamaha 750 Virago, much to Elizabeth‘s horror. She hasn‘t mustered up the courage to confess that after her cousin Rexy Wakefield‘s death, none of them are allowed on one. Liz finds herself getting weirdly jealous any time another girl is on the back of the bike & Todd tries to talk Ned & Alice into it, but fails. In the first #SVH twin intuition instance, Jess realizes while at Miller‘s Point that Liz needs her!

It would not be Christmas without crazy Margo & her diabolical plan to kill Liz & take over her identity. 😆 This is my all-time fave SV book & I realized I hadn‘t done a reread in 6 years. Blasphemy! I never get tired of this no matter how many times I read it. 5⭐️ 80 points

Special Christmas | Francine Pascal

This is a fun SVH Christmas book. Todd is still in Vermont & is coming to see Liz over the break. But she‘s not sure if they still have that spark anymore. Meanwhile, Suzanne Devlin, who terrorized Liz & her friends the last time she visited, is coming for Christmas. She says she‘s changed & is sorry & wants to make it up to everyone, but Jess doesn‘t buy it. She comes up with some pretty mean pranks to try to get her to leave. But Suzanne has ⬇️

JenlovesJT47 A secret: she has multiple sclerosis & doesn‘t want anyone to know. One of Jess‘s pranks backfires badly when Suzanne mixes champagne & her experimental medication & she wrecks the Fiat. Oh, & she & Todd kind of have a thing for each other & Liz gives her blessing in the end. Oh oh, & she doesn‘t actually have MS, the doctors misdiagnosed her & she will be fine. I expect nothing less from Sweet Valley. 😆 4⭐️ 80 points 10mo

JenlovesJT47 @TorieStorieS have you read this one? I was shook when I got to the part where the twins, Steven & Suzanne are getting ready to leave for a Christmas party & the Wakefield Parentals gave them a bottle of champagne! I have zero recollection of that lol. Don‘t remember them ever doing something like that 😳 10mo
TorieStorieS I haven‘t read this one in probably 20 years!! And while I do remember Suzanne Devlin, I totally don‘t remember the champagne!! 🍾 🤯 10mo
JenlovesJT47 @TorieStorieS I had only read it once before, 8 years ago when I was doing my SVH read-through, and I really don‘t remember that. I guess it‘s just a plot device, because Suzanne crashed the Fiat after drinking the champagne mixed with her medication. It was just so weird seeing the Wakefields nonchalantly leave their kids a bottle of champagne 😆 10mo

It‘s time for the alternate cover of the day! 😆

In all seriousness, please send prayers and/or good vibes this way. I live in central Florida and am freaking out about this monster hurricane headed this way. We‘re hunkering down at home and I‘ve got 3 kindles filled with books to keep me distracted. Any of my Litsy friends who are in the line of this storm, I‘m thinking of you and praying.

Happy reading!

TorieStorieS I was never a Dana Larson fan, but poor Arthur Castillo deserves Princess Elizabeth! (edited) 13mo
JenlovesJT47 @TorieStorieS I know! Dana is SO annoying in this one. I haven‘t read the SVT book about Arthur in 20+ years but my man Arthur definitely deserves better than Dana! 😆 13mo
