Terrifying thing #1
I am trying to get one of my editors (he is lovely and encourages me to do strange things) to let me review the new Sweet Valley book, Sweet Valley Confidential. Amazon's "customers who bought this also bought" section lists one of the later Sweet Valley High books. It is titled "What Jessica Wants". This is what one of the Amazon reviews says.

I believe jessica COULD have succeded in getting devon if she was only a bit smarter. The problem, I believe, is that jessica relies too much on the obvious manipulation tricks such as smiling. If she were truly skilled she would have used subtle tecniques to get around the mental block that devon set up in his mind to stop jessica from getting him. She would have had a much higher chance of success that way. I believe she should study the real tricks of manipulation.
Jessica is not manipulative and sociopathic enough. The youth of today terrify me.

In related news, I reviewed the Snooki book.
