Excerpts from new versions of SVH
You can go to Amazon and read excerpts from the first chapters of the new versions of Double Love and Secrets:
http://www.amazon.com/Sweet-Valley-High-Double-Love/dp/0440422620/ref=pd_bbs_sr_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1207856484&sr=8-6

Even without having the originals in front of me, I can see the differences immediately. I think I'll go this weekend and pick them up on a lark. Has anyone else bought these yet? According to Borders.com, Playing with Fire and Power Play are the next two books to be released, both to be released on 8/26.
EDIT: This is the description of Power Play, according to Amazon:
JESSICA WAKEFIELD IS used to setting off sparks. But when she starts a new, highly selective club-the Sweet Valley High Beautification Committee-she begins a war with her twin sister.
Elizabeth knows that Jessica has more on her mind than simply cleaning up the SVH campus. It’s obvious that the Beauties are out to become the most elite group of girls at school, even if it means walking all over those they deem less worthy. Only one Wakefield can reign supreme. And Liz is determined to show Jessica that the final say on beauty won’t come from a committee vote.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that WAY off the plot of the original novel? Didn't the original Power Play have to do with Liz and Jess battling over Robin getting into Pi Beta Alpha? This should be interesting....
