Part six SVH #36 - Rumours

The Bridgwater Ball is coming up and Lila doesn’t have a date. This is a source of shame for her, as very few people from SVH will go. So it’s badder than usual, or something. Susan Stewart will be going with her boyfriend Gordon Stoddard, because his family are big mucky-mucks. Lila seems hugely offended by this - ( Read more... )

Haha, I loved the Swiss boarding school plot, and not just cause I'm from Switzerland - actually the stereotypes just turned me off but Jessica playing a slutty and insensitive Elizabeth was just hilarious.

And may I just say that Buzz is the stupidest name for a drug dealer ever.

It's what the kids are listening to.

Very festive Lila. I like it.

I always found Regina's death oddly hilarious (Margo was my favourite character so that explains it)...although I never found out if Molly got 'redeemed.' Btw, is your icon Scott the college boy rapist in Book 5?

Yes. Yes it is. Having been to college, I can announce that very few men have facial hair like that.

At the time Regina's death was nothing but unbearably tragic to me. Now it makes me laugh my arse off. "It's er... a rare reaction ... which means just one try kills her!"

zOMG drama. Great recap! I chuckled many times ;)

(Acid rock. DUDE. What is acid rock?)

roseability_ December 3 2007, 21:14:53 UTC

Wikipedia says The Grateful Dead, maybe a bit of Jimi Hendrix.

If this is a party in the 80s and they're all taking cocaine I would expect something a little different.

Sweet Valley's drug culture is not like our earth drug culture.

clubx December 7 2007, 17:13:07 UTC

Oh my goodness...I'm totally picturing everyone sitting in their stupid circle with Buzz singing along "Drivin' that train...high on cocaine..."

Jessica amazes me with her total lack of capacity for human empathy. I still love your recap though!

Doesn't it seem like the ghostwriters like to recycle plots from series to series? I know I remember an SVT book on marriages in class, and one on personal ads too.

schmandalous December 4 2007, 02:48:11 UTC

Those personal ads bring the lols. They sound like those CraigsList postings that are actually for prostitutes.

Also Sociopathic!Jessica is in high form here. I always hated how she sabotaged Liz from going to boarding school. But I guess no one can leave Sweet Valley, because that would be WRONG! They probably have an electric fence or something that zaps the shit out of you if you leave the idyllic beaches for more than just a simple vacation.
