Sweet Valley Confidential

Sweet Valley Confidential: Ten Years Later, by Francine Pascal.

It was so different from being with Todd; even now it felt like a strange and disloyal thought but true. She tried to think of exactly how it was different. Yes, she and Todd had been together a fairly long time, had lived together for almost two years. That had to quiet passions. Or deepen them.

It had quieted theirs.

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


Kind of made me want to re-read the old Sweet Valley books, the last of which were not written by Pascal herself but rather ghost-written. She's updated the books for the 21st century and made sure to include such staples as emailing, Facebook, and Twitter, but these characters hardly feel like the Sweet Valley characters were grew to love back in the '80s and '90s. Would be a fine "beach read" if she didn't so deftly manipulate the characters to fit one.
