A New York Times Bestseller!
“Before there was Gossip Girl, there was Sweet Valley High…Sweet Valley Confidential makes a compelling enough companion that we actually missed two subway stops because we were caught up in its frothy fun.” —Wall Street Journal
Iconic and beloved identical twins Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield are all grown up, and navigating the very complicated world of work, love and betrayal in Francine Pascal's long-awaited return to Sweet Valley.
What terrible secret has torn Jessica and Elizabeth apart?
Ten years after Sweet Valley High, the Wakefield twins have had a falling out of epic proportions. When Jessica commits a complete and utter betrayal, Elizabeth flees to New York to escape the pain. Jessica remains in California, dealing with the fallout of her heart-wrenching choices. But with Elizabeth as her enemy, Sweet Valley is no longer the idyllic town of their youth.
Elizabeth soon decides the only way to heal her broken heart is to get revenge for Jessica's duplicity. Always the "good" twin, Elizabeth about to turn the tables…
Francine Pascal finally unfolds the continuing story of Elizabeth and Jessica Wakefield—and the whole gang from Sweet Valley—that will delight and surprise the millions of fans of these beloved characters.
Customer Reviews
A blast from the past!
I loved the book. It was not very deep, but a fun read that reminded me of my childhood!
What?!?
Wait a minute. When did Elizabeth leave England? What happened to Max? Did those books not count anymore?! Elizabeth and Todd broke up, and for a reason. They tried to get back together in one of those offshoot side books that weren't directly in the series, but realized they just didn't have "it" anymore. (Yes, I am somewhat embarrassed I remember this so well.)
Sweet Valley twins books were a huge part of my childhood. This book does not seem to fit into those at all. It's not just the story line (which seems somewhat ludicrous but whatever, I could take that), it's also the total disregard for the writing (I started to cross out the word "like" because its prominence was so disturbing). Some of the story was funny, such as the "what happened to everyone" at the end (which read like an episode of the Real Housewives franchise), but mostly I was severely disappointed.
Biggest dissapointment!
Ok, I've just finished the book, now can we pretend this book never existed and stick with the good old memories?
Biggest dissapointment, Liz and Todd 4ever!
