Sweet Valley High Magna Edition: Return of the Evil Twin

Oh, Crazy Margo. I just can’t quit you.

If you’re fuzzy on Margo’s backstory, check out the recaps of A Night to Remember and books 95-100. It’s really too much to summarize here.

Oh man. This might be the most awesome SVH of all time.

Posted by elizabear | November PM oh man, thanks for linking, these sites are amazing. I would read just about any book put in front of me as a kid, and consequently that meant all the SVH and BSC books.

I'm kinda distracted by the drawing on the inside flap's where apparently Jess's room has a window right next to a door leading out to a hallway?! What kind of crazy Escher house doe the Wakefields live in?

But I am so happy that all these crazy twin books have been recapped - it remains the best overarching storyline in serialised teen book history.

LOL! You're right, wtf? That's bizarre.

Best SVH book EVER, and awesome recap =)

I just have one question: Why, on the book cover, does Crazy Nora look like she stepped off the set of 'Grease'?

And, oh, I just thought of this: I presume they took the body of Dead-Jessica-Who-Was-Really-Margo to the morgue, and I presume they did an autopsy and everything. So I'm thinking, based on her medical files and whatnot, wouldn't they know the body wasn't really Jessica's? Unless Jessica and Margo have the same blood type, which would be a coincidence... never mind. I just read that last word. In a world where there exists two pairs of identical twins who look exactly like each other, I find matching blood types a coincidence. Clearly I'm not as well-versed in the world of Sweet Valley as I thought I was.

(I just realized that I also assumed the authorities did their job (the autopsy-performing). Again, another mistake, as we all know that in the world of Sweet Valley, the cops and doctors seldom do what they're actually supposed to.)

They probably deep froze the body to make clones for the next generation of Wakefield twins - what would SV be without perfect size 6 golden haired eternally 16 twins. I mean, c'mon, Liz is such a prude she's never going to get to the kiddy stage, so Jess was really the only hope of reproducting the line.

Actually the DNA test should still come back and say that Margo was realy not one of the glorious Wakefield twins

Can I add that I have HATE for that poem? I never understood why, since Liz is supposed to be the next William Shakespear (lmao almost put Shatner..) she always had god awful poems and gossip columns?

Just...don't...get it.

I understand, but really, what do we expect? I mean, can the ghostwriters of Sweet Valley actually write? I have some books from earlier on in the series that have typos! I mean, okay, sometimes they are printing errors, but still...TYPOS in PUBLISHED WORKS. For shame, Francine Pascal! In short, maybe the SVH writers really did think Liz's writing was good =S

[dirtywingsgirl]

YES! YES!!! OH GOD, YES!!!!!!!!!! I haven't even read this recap yet, but I'm just so excited to see you've done it. I have to go out now *cries*. But I can't wait to read it when I get back.
