    About this ebook

    Who will Todd choose—the glamorous Jessica or the gentle Elizabeth?

    Elizabeth and Jessica Wakefield are identical twins—beautiful, blonde, perfect—but they couldn't be more different from each other. Elizabeth is friendly, good-natured, and kind, and the complete opposite of her clever, conniving sister. Jessica believes the world revolves around her…and the problem is that most of the time it does. Jessica always gets what she wants—at school, amongst her friends, and especially with boys.

    This time, she's got her eye on Todd Wilkins, the good-looking star of Sweet Valley High's basketball team—and the one boy Elizabeth really likes. Now the twins are in a game of double love, with Todd as first prize. Will Elizabeth fight for the Todd? What will Jessica stoop to in order to get what she wants? Can the bonds of sisterhood stand up to the pangs of a broken heart?

    Welcome to Sweet Valley High… the beloved series by Francine Pascal.

      I was reading Sweet Valley Kids when I was little. All of it were hand me downs by the daughter of my mother's officemate. I didn't even see her or know her name (Wherever you are right now, thank you for giving me books when I was young).

      The Sweet Valley High is still about the sun-colored hair identical twins; this series is the adult or older version of the SVK.

      No matter how identical the Wakefield twins in appearance, their characters are far from each other. They're like day and night. Elizabeth Wakefield--older by four minutes than her sister--is smart, kind, and the best sister you can ever have. While Jessica Wakefield is the popular, vain, and the worst sister you can ever have.

      I just love to hate Jessica. She's the original Blair Waldorf of Gossip Girl or Regina George of Mean Girls. Do girls like these really exist? Throughout the story, she was preventing her sister's happiness. She's manipulative and doing things in her way, usually without being reprimanded.

      Though Elizabeth is very kind, I can't help but get irritated sometimes because she's being way too kind. She's spoiling her rotten sister, maybe that's one of the reasons why Jessica takes advantage of her. But Elizabeth is the epitome of good always wins in the end.

      I think that Todd is not the right guy for any of the twins because he did WHAT?! in the middle of the story. But I'll give him a chance as it is still the start of the series.

      I'm amazed on how Francine Pascal never ran out of plots for these twins; she made tons of series for all age brackets. It is evident that she got some formulas, but who cares? It's interesting and it's still making readers hooked.

      This was the first time I'd read this and being an adult it made me shake my head at how "highschool" it was.. Not a bad read, had I read it as a teen I probably would have enjoyed it. :)

      OK, I have read many of the Sweet Valley High books, but I'm too lazy to go through and mark all the ones I've read. Let's just say they are all quick reads without redeeming value except entertainment purposes. I read them throughout elementary school and middle school.

      Hoo boy! did teenage me have some bad taste in books. I saw this yesterday in a Free Little Library and couldn't resist finding out how it would read now. It's pretty awful; what was teenage me thinking?? The characters were so cardboard: Jessica is the vain, selfish, shallow, 'evil' twin; Elizabeth is everything good and shiny. Jessica steals Liz's love interest and Liz is all brave and noble. Liz's love interest is an absolute jackass of an 80's teen with a 50's mentality. And I don't even know what the hell was supposed to be going on with their parents... Dumb book. I'd probably be less harsh with it if I didn't know there were authors out there like Blume who were doing exponentially better books for teens long before this was written, but thankfully there were, and thankfully I read them.
    • 3/5
      I'm giving this 3 stars because it was fun! I loved SVH when I was younger, but never read most of the original high school series, just the spin-offs. I wasn't expecting great, life-changing literature so I enoyed myself. It was brain candy but in the asolute best way. If you want to have some quick, easy fun you should read this book!

      Before I read this series I believed it was created with middle school students in mind. After reading Sweet Valley High Double Love however I can see how teens would be interested in the stories in this series. The plot moves fast and has all the teen angst between the different high school personas. There is some underage drinking and drinking and driving present in the plot. The author does make it known that it is the bad boy in town, the high school drop out that is engaging in these activities. The relationship between the twins is interesting because they are so different. This is an entertaining book that definitely reads like a teen soap opera. It has the ability to draw the teens in and keep them cheering for their favorite characters.

      I used to love reading these books in middle school! I haven't picked one up in ages, but I would assume they aren't as great as I remember them being. Still, I loved Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield because 1) I was not a twin, 2) I was neither blonde nor petite, and 3) they were so cool! I used to have a whole slew of them that someone gave me - kind of wish I'd kept them all...Again, I'm only listing the first one b/c I don't want to list however many there are...
    • 4/5
      These books were so racy when I was younger. I had to borrow them from friends and read them in a locked bathroom. (My poor mom probably thought I had some weird ailment.)Anyway, this book wasn't nearly as torrid as I remembered - just some underage smoking and beer-drinking and a scandalous run-in with the local bad boy. Jessica was just as conniving as I remembered and Elizabeth just as dull.
