A little off topic.

Totally not sewing related today. But I know a lot of you are big readers like me. Did you read the Sweet Valley books when you were younger? I was obsessed with them. So I was really excited to see this....


Yup - she wrote a book about Jessica and Elizabeth as adults! And this really cracked me up. When you open the book, this is the inside cover.


That brings back some memories. haha! Just thought I'd share for any fans out there.  It's definitely a light and fluffy book, good beach read. (sorry for the crappy pictures, not sure what's up with my photo skills today).


That is all.

Totally forgot about those books. I read some, I think my sister read more of them. We even had the board game. Wow, the way memories come back!

Ohhh, I LOVED SVH books! In fact, I think I'm going to see if my library has that too. = )

I LOVED Sweet Valley High when I was younger. I heard about this book about a month ago but haven't gotten a chance to check if the library has it. Enjoy!

Wow! I was just thinking of Sweet Valley High the other day and remembering how much those books made me want to be a twin! Thanks for posting about this - I hadn't heard of it but I MUST get this book for the summer!

I heard this was coming out! Yes, I read them all. I'm pretty sure I even read the SV Twins series in their junior high life. I'll definitely have to pick this up for a quick read. Thanks for sharing!

Isn't there also a movie coming out next year? I think I read an interview with Diablo Cody and she mentioned it. Look out for that!

Thank you for sharing...I am um, how should I say this...older, so I did not read SVH, but my daughter inhaled them. I doubt she has heard about this yet since she is a busy working mother with a baby and lives in a foriegn country, but what fun it will be to send in a care package!!!

Wow, this brought back middle school memories! I read every one our little library had. I just might have to pick this one up for a laugh. Thanks for sharing.

Oh my gosh, I thought I was the only grown-up who read that one!! I read it from my local library last month and breezed right through it. It was a nice fluffy read, I totally agree :)

So funny I loved SVH books and read them all. That is where all my money went growing up. I will have to check this out! :) Thanks for sharing!

Denise in PA said...

LOL! I'm going to have to check this out! I like a nice, quick, fluffy book every once in a while. I'm reading something a little heavy right now, so this will be a good change of pace! Off I go to Amazon now....

Oh, that's fantastic! I read quite a bit of the Sweet Valley series as a girl (all of them, from when they were in elementary school to high school). There were even some books written about Jessica and Elizabeth's ancestors... I know i'm a nerd. BUT- being a twin, these were great for my sister and me. So, I'm totally going to see if this book is in our local library. After all, I am going to the beach this weekend :o) Thanks for sharing!!!

Rachel said...

I read more than my fair share of Sweet Valley High books. I'll need to read this one this summer.

Jessica Levitt said...

Ha! I totally read those books. In fact I'm pretty sure I have a box of them in my basement that I saved when my parents moved. I'm totally going to have to check that out... no that I tend to do much reading lately.
