Rather than shoot Eric Jessica yells “Pysch!” (Seriously) and whacks him on the head with it as hard as she can, causing him to be knocked unconscious and fall overboard.
Sooo 1990s!

Wow, Liz must like dumb guys because that Matt is slower than Todd.

These Thriller Editions are WAY too formulaic. I remember reading one and within the first one-fifth of the novel I already knew who the creeper/bad guy was going to be and skipped past a bunch of chapters.

I can't get over the three birds thing. They actually have hallucinations in these things? Damn.

What I'm wondering is why Nick is such a jerk and a creep to begin with. If he didn't want to go with Jessica so badly why on earth did he even bother boating with her? :O

So she puts a can of tomato soup in the microwave

WaitwhatwhatWHAT?! A METAL CAN IN A MICROWAVE? Does the book actually say she popped the can right in? Cuz... uh, D:

Nah, Jess didn't actually put the can in the microwave, though I wouldn't put it past her. She empties it into a plastic bowl first, but she does somehow manage to mess it up; when she gives it to Nick he thinks its Jell-o.

Jessica was actually kind of awesome in this. Nick, on the other hand, was not.

What was Nick thinking, taking the Queen of High-Maintenance on a boat that has no phone, can't cope with the weight of 3253785 suitcases, requires work to sail and has fuck-all food?

he gets her back by letting the boom smack her in the head. He may have said ‘duck’ but he was standing right near her and didn’t even try to move her out of the way, those things kill people - not cool Nick.
Oh God, that didn't even occur to me when I read this book. God, Nick is full of fail in this book.

Since Olivia's refrigerator death happened at the end of junior year and this is university, I have this mental picture of Eric lifting the story from the Sweet Valley News or something.

Jessica smartly says that she doesn’t want to find out. Nick reminds Jessica that he is a cop - a Sweet Valley cop - so of course he’d know if Eric were a bad guy.
Ah, Sweet Valley's finest.

Nick promises he’ll be back before Eric wakes up while Jessica thinks Eric will ‘wake up’ as soon as Nick is gone.It's a sad, sad day when Miss Metal-in-a-Microwave (couldn' ( ... )

I know, I was like "OOOH! TAG IT! TAG IT!!!"

However as Nick is straddling Eric and beating on him, he realizes that he’s enjoying it
Hah. Not only are the SVPD incompetent, they enjoy beating suspects! You know, when their days are getting too boring from not solving any crimes, they will insert some police brutality into the day.

Also, I love that there are 26 books/TV episodes with the "murder" tag. Sweet Valley's super-safe, y'all!
