Now that summer's over, identical twins Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield can't wait to get back to school. The only question is: Which school will they be going to?
Sweet Valley Middle School has become so overcrowded, half the seventh and eighth graders will be moved to a new junior high. And nobody knows who will stay and who will go! The twins and their friends plan to spend what might be a final night together, camping out playing Truth or Dare.
But these friends who thought they knew one another so well are about to discover a truth more shocking than any dare....
Don't miss Books One, Two, and Three in this fantastic four-part miniseries: Countdown to Jr. High.
Francine Paula Pascal was an American author best known for her Sweet Valley series of young adult novels. Sweet Valley High, the backbone of the collection, was made into a television series, which led to several spin-offs, including The Unicorn Club and Sweet Valley University. Although most of these books were published in the 1980s and 1990s, they remained so popular that several titles were re-released decades later.
This is one of those books where the summary is technically a correct statement of facts, but is also almost nothing to do with the plot.
The actual plot involves: the twins have a fight (which really cannot stretch out to be the entire A plot and only highlights there is no B plot); literally every character tells each twin that "twinsies are besties"; and then a Magical Native American spirit fixes everything.
And if you think that sounds exciting, I'm telling it wrong.
Not the worst in the series, but I would have much rather read the book the summary was written about than this.
