Super Thiller #2: On the Run

Feb 07, 2008 19:40

This is my first attempt at a recap. Without any attempted date rapes, this book is pretty boring, but full of snark worthy material.

In this book, we learn Elizabeth is embarrassed about her writing and is a cheating slut at the same time, not all horrible lawyers are named Ned Wakefield and that Sweet Valley is the most perfect in the world! Also ( Read more... )

sweet valley high, cheating cheaters, recapper: 4minutesoryears, liz the bard, super chiller

GREAT RECAP! tooimpurenangel February 8 2008, 01:22:05 UTC

Liz is not the whore! If they had a Sweet Valley whore-off, Bruce Patman would take the gold!

Ugh, I forgot how horrible the poetry was in that book.

I miss Jeffrey=(

Great recap!! I never was that into those early mysteries - who would reeeally let the twins, even Liz, work at the newspaper anyway? And it was so annoying how they'd constantly get kidnapped/traumatised but have no mental repercussions.

Someone (with a lot of time LOL) should compile all the poetry ever written in a Sweet Valley book. It would make for hilarious reading. I remember when I was younger I thought this one poem in one of the Sweet Valley Sagas was really cool - it had the line "I soak in nature's embrace" or something in it.

By the way: DAMN YOU openID! I know I spelled my blog url correctly - why does it not recognise me? Now I'm just a dodgy anonymous person...

I've always wondered how much the therapy bill would be!

Ahhhh! I agree with you on the poetry! I like Jessica's poem for AJ the best!

Doesn't Saint Elizabeth the Bard turn her nose up at that poem? Hello pot, meet kettle!

Yay for openID! It worked this time LOL.

Maybe they could have another spin-off - Sweet Valley High - The Therapy Years.
The ghostwriters wouldn't even have to work that hard (although they are barely lifting a finger most of the time) - they could just re-hash old traumatic storylines and how the twins "really feel" about them.

I would totally read that series.

I assumed that's what the next series would be (Heights, was it?).

I think you could totally be a SV ghostwriter - your poetry sample was fantastic.

She wants them to be about her, but she still hasn’t told Eric or Jeff about the other.
Somebody needs to write a thesis entitled "The Raging Hypocrisy of Elizaqbeth Wakefield"

I picked this one up at a local thrift store and just finished reading it and WOW did it suck. Great job on the recap.
One thing I loved in the book was the mention that Jessica's bicycle had a BASKET which sounds increadibly juvenile for a 16 year old. I immediately thought of Jan Brady from The Brady Bunch Movie!
