Sweet Valley University #29: One Last Kiss

For those of you who don't read my personal journal: a few days ago I ordered a Sweet Valley book had had it rush delivered to my apartment. Why? Because it was an emergency, that's why.

I guess we're supposed to feel sorry for Dana but she just creeps me out.

She is seriously fucked up in the head. In the sophomore year books, she goes berserk over the fact that Todd (who she started dating shortly before) has a job and can't spend that time with her, and spends all her time crying and getting him to comfort her. A couple of books in, she drops out of college because she's not the best cellist in her class anymore (perhaps because she spends all her time turning on the histrionics for Todd instead of, like, practicing), then she gets so pissed off at Todd working instead of being with her that she goes and gets trashed and fucks Tom. And then, when Todd gets home she goes "I JUST FUCKED TOM WATTS BECAUSE YOU WEREN'T PAYING ANY ATTENTION TO ME!!!!!" and wonders why he dumps her ass, and then walks off the face of the earth, never to be seen again, thinking to herself about how she's lost everything. Great book.

I second it. I didn't read that one because I quit SVU 'round the time of this book. But that sounds TOTALLY. FREAKING. AWESOME.

Hee, OK. *orders* I doubt it'll be as good as the other snarks on here, but the Dana storyline (and several others, IIRC) snark themselves.

Before I read this comment, I didn't realize Todd and Tom dated the same Dana, though all I know of Todd and Dana were from Elizabeth's Secret Love Diaries. I actually thought that wasn't such a bad book. It made me like Todd for a bit.
