The nostalgia! My mom came across my collection of SVH and sent them home with me. I intend to donate them to my kiddos classroom library, but I am going to enjoy them for a few days first.
pickIt‘s the last book of #TheUnicornClub! Kimberly feels like the odd one out again as the only 8th grader & makes a play to stir things up to claim the club presidency. When a prank from the unlikely crush between Lila Fowler & Jerry McAllister ends up trapping the girls inside the mall, it‘s like a dream come true… until it becomes more like a nightmare! This spinoff has been fun & hopefully I can track down the missing book IN LOVE WITH MANDY!
pickJohnny Buck‘s back in #SweetValley for a benefit concert for the Sweet Valley Children‘s Hospital (no mention of his surprise concert from the 15th book!). Jessica wins a contest for the day of the concert to be spent at his side, showing him around. As usual, she exaggerates a bit but with Mandy there to document the date, it winds up being leverage as Johnny‘s image also exaggerates his talents (he can‘t ride horses, swim or drive a moped)!
pickBack from their Caribbean adventure, Lila comes home to the unsettling news that her dad thinks the 75-room Fowler Crest mansion is too big for them & that they‘ll sell, downsizing to a modest 6-bedroom cottage on Secca Lake. Horrified that this will mean less time with the Unicorns who so love her home, Lila goes all out in trying to convince equally snobby Rachel Grant to talk her dad out of buying her mansion. She also uncovers Rachel‘s secret!
pickSome friends of the Parentals have dropped off their 2 little hellions for the weekend at Casa Wakefield. They proceed to terrorize the twins with mean pranks until Jess & Liz have had enough & decide to run away. They run all the way away to their fort in the backyard 😆 & eventually, all is right in their world again. So cute. 4⭐️

pickThe Unicorns arrived on St. Maurice Island but no one is enjoying their trip! Ellen‘s still juggling the 4 boys each of her friends realized they are crushing on while still keeping her away from surfer Curtis. When the cold shoulder fails, they try to straighten it out with the boys instead of Ellen which backfires & sends an upset Ellen out in a hurricane to get away from them! Eventually it all gets straightened out & ends with love in the air!
pickKimberly Haver narrates here, feeling a little disdainful of the 7th grade Unicorns and their immaturity with popping gum & prank calls. When the president of the rival club, Eight Times Eight, abruptly moves, Kimberly‘s flattered by their wooing. The Eights hang out with high schoolers & have invited her to the front row seats for the Johnny Buck concert! When her dad winds up in the hospital, it‘s only her true friends-The Unicorns- who show up!
pickLila Fowler‘s the focus here! Psyched to have gotten an A on her math test, she‘s thrilled her dad is taking her to Chez Francois to celebrate… but when he stands her up for a flight to NYC, she doesn‘t know what to do! Her latest crush—a SVH soccer player— accepts lavish gifts and a date, so Lila thinks nothing of inviting him (with friends) to a Unicorn Club party. Along the way, her shopping spree hits credit card limits & the party goes crazy!
pickEllen Riteman narrates this one— a fun departure from all of the Angels versus Unicorns drama! The daycare center no longer takes children younger than 3, but Ellen‘s neighbor, who is going through a tumultuous divorce with her financially unstable husband, has an unreliable nanny. Ellen agrees to watch Annabel—but it turns out to be much longer than the hour or two she expects! All the girls (plus St. Liz) help—even bringing the baby to school!
pickBoth Mandy & Lila narrate this one. Lila‘s determined to win Mandy back into the Unicorns & as usual, her first inclination is to buy her way back— not just a brownie sundae at Casey‘s but gold earrings she knows Mandy loves, & in the most ridiculous purchase of Lila‘s so far— she puts in an offer on a house when she learns Mandy‘s made friends with a 7 year old with cancer who can‘t always have his mom there since they live 5 hours north!
