LOLOLOL. Thank you so much for recapping this; this set of books, and the vampire trilogy (for the life of me I can't remember what they're called) were the first Sweet Valley books I ever read and they bring the most lulz for me.

You're welcome! Speaking of ridiculous SVH books, I always enjoyed Special Christmas. That's the one where Suzanne Devlin is misdiagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, but it's really just a case of mono. The doctors in the SV universe are frighteningly incompetent. I'm surprised that Elizabeth wasn't misdiagnosed with an ear infection when she slipped into a coma after her motorcycle accident.

Jesus Christ. I don't think I've ever read that one... and uh, I've had mono multiple times (limited immune system, don't have the capacity to build immunity etc etc) and can't remember it being anything like MS symptoms. Maybe someone else has had a different experience... in Suzanne's case, I'd call that experience "malpractice."

What exactly is mono for us Aussies? We don't use that term over here so I was blinded into believing that SVH may actually be plausible.

Oh! Oh!! I think I remember reading that a couple years. I'm going to the storage room later this afternoon to dig them up (because I'm not anal retentive about labeling, so there's a SVH box and a SVH doubles box).
