Sweet Valley 10 Years On

[madamehooch]

At the risk of being outed as a closet Sweet Valley High fan, I did happen to note that the long awaited 'Sweet Valley Confidential' (possibly also named 'Sweet Valley - 10 Years On') will be out early next year. Do I buy it anonymously on line or do I march in loud and proud to my local (non-snobby/non-judgmental) book shop?

go on, give me the first line, I can;t remember but that saturday morning feeling will soon come flooding back

There was a TV show I so totally missed that...

I have been lovingly caring for lugging these rubbish books about with me for over 20 years just in case my dear sis has a baby girl one day! Sis and I used to take it in turns to buy the new one, I think it's sis's turn

Read an adult Judy Blume recently and it was not too bad!

Oh my word - Having You Tubed, I realise that I did indeed watch it

I never knew there was a TV show either!

Josh? I thought his name was Jeff?
Or did I dream that?

Oh yes the TV series...
Todd was no where near enough good looking imo!

Did anyone else also read the Bantam Sweet Dreams series?

if I am wrong then I am not so sad as I thought!

can't see him referenced in this at all

oh yes, I remember those

It was Jeff!! You were right!

I sadly didn't manage to watch the whole 11 minutes. It was...quite bad.

OMG just watched the Intro on Youtube and I also watched this a lot and I think I may have been older than a teenager - it has all come flooding back to me!!

I have a memory of reading a sweet valley book when they were older or maybe it was just a weird spin off - and basically there was an evil girl who looked exactly like Elizabeth who then tried to murder the real elizabeth! It was quite dark - anyone know what I'm talking about?

"Jeffrey French, Elizabeth's preppy ex-boyfriend who disappeared from the series following their breakup."

gembay, yes I can...wow that's embarrassing

evil twin

gembay that was sweet valley high, when it progressed from individual novels to 3/4 parts series. God that series had me gripped! LOL!
She tried to off Elizabeth at either Bruce or Lila's pool house.

I remember the books and watching the TV series
Cannot remember anything of the plots though

Oh wow! I remember these!

Itsstillme I was singing the song before I saw your post! Think I will have to buy the book!

andf the twins had fallen out because e had killed sam, j's boyfriend through drink driving...but she was drunk because j had spiked her drink

I was about 10? When the I read the book with the plotline of Elizabeth getting into the motorbike accident and I thought the bit at the end with her and Bruce kissing and him feeling her norks was incredibly naughty!!

Stealth - The Truth about me and Bobby Vee and Perfect Match. Any others?

Thanks for the evil twin link stealth - glad I wasnt imagining things!

Oh you so wish you could see me right now! (well, maybe not actually!)
