Sweet Valley High #79: The Long Lost Brother

I would like to start off by wishing the Wakefield twins a very happy birthday. If those blonde haired, blue eyed Geminis were sixteen in 1983, that means Liz is turning 41 today, and four minutes later Jess will turn 29 for the twelfth time.

So, today I will be recapping #79, The Long Lost Brother. ( Read more... )

Ohmigod, ohmigod you guys. This book is gonna win the prize.

The father leaving Tim at the airport? Chili for dinner? Random Bobs!? Classic.

Liz sanctimoniously thinks about how great she and Steve and Jess are, that they’ve never been ashamed of each other. Probably because she doesn’t know about Steve’s weird infatuation with Jess, and is in denial about Jess’s sociopathy.
Well she SHOULD be embarrassed by them.

she just accuses Liz of going to too many Triple A meetings. I’ll admit, it was kind of cheap, but I laughed.
I laughed too! Tim goes to triple A meetings because he wants to be a mechanic! Aww!

"Then it turns out her mom has a secret boyfriend too, who lives in LA and has a helicopter. No, seriously."

These ghost writers, what will they think of next... *shakes head*

Great recap though. I'm glad the shop I work in is empty because I kept on bursting into very loud laughter!

Yes. It is "after you have contributed something to the shop website". I am getting very good at contributing events and deleting spambots so I can get here quickly!

Man, I didn't even know that this book existed. I don't think I really paid much attention to the books that didn't focus on the fifteen or so main recurring characters. Fabby recap. (Is Liz wearing culottes on the cover? Hott.)

St. Liz slides right in. I think she lurks, you guys, spying on people, just waiting for that moment when she can get all up things that aren't her business.

Hee. I wouldn't be surprised!

"Sara goes to the back yard and plays on the swings." i have done the same when being dumped by Unnecessary 'Insert Guys Name'. except i brought booze with me.

"This supercool van is purple and has a roaring lion painted on the side." i would accept invitation to ride in said van, steal all Crunchs alcohol and go get wasted with Betsy martin.

"Bob thinks Tim’s shoes were fabulous"
Bob is gay

awesome recap:)

Great recap.

that means Liz is turning 41 today, and four minutes later Jess will turn 29 for the twelfth time.

So, so true.

There is much, “My name is Whatever, and I’m an alcoholic!” “Hi, Whatever!”
LOL

and then Tim and Crunch start going at it. Not like that. (Though if it were like that, isn’t it nice to know that Project Youth has a support group?)
Classic.
