I remember this one, it's one of the few SVT books I really remember besides the super chillers. It was actually pretty good. I'm not sure why I thought I didn't like Lila when I was a kid, because I always loved the Lila-centric books.
Oh my gosh, you're right :D The premise of this book is awesome. I love how Lila doesn't bother to ask her Dad, she just assumes. Lame. I LOVE the idea that someone has to give Lila poor lessons. And I love that Jessica calls Lila out on being stingy, hehe. Even though Lila rocks, she always struck me as unusually unwilling to part with her funds...although I suppose with Jessica "I pay on credit!" Wakefield as a best friend, you wouldn't want to be too loose with your purse strings, or you could wind up cleaned out.
Ellen assures Lila, “I can promise you I haven’t been thinking anything at all. And I never will.” Wow. Whoa! You guys, maybe Ellen isn't the dumbass we all thought she was...maybe she's merely insanely anal about being true to her word?

Lila: Well, sure. Unicorns try to do good deeds, I guess. Mostly we talk about boys, though.
It's like the Unicorns are the mother yeast from which the likes of the Plastics and the Fashion Club budded.
Great recap!
Also, question- is it ever explained in any of the SV books why Lila (and Bruce too, I suppose) go to public schools instead of private ones? 'Cause one would expect them too, being that rich.
I think it was mentioned (maybe?) in the SVH where Todd comes back and goes to Lovett Academy...something about that school being too stuffy even for Lila??
I think it was because George and Hank and Marie wanted their kids to grow up "knowing what the real world is like." Considering Sweet Valley is their Real World, this is especially hilarious.
