True Blue

Sweet Valley Jr. High #18

by Francine Pascal (Creator)

Don't get him wrong. Blue thinks living by the beach is awesome. But that doesn't mean he wants to hang there all the time. After all, school can be pretty cool sometimes. Especially when Elizabeth Wakefield is around.

About the author

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.

I think I read so many books this month, and this is one of them. I got it in Kinokuniya PS while doing a quick browse. It's the only copy available for the Sweet Valley Jr High and I happened to miss this book from my collection.

Not a lot going on. Blue getting a social worker coming to check on him and his brother Leaf. He freaks out, so he starts joining clubs and studying. Bethel and Lacey bond over the latter's very first period. No stories on Jess, only on Brian and Liz, getting to know Blue better.

No surprises, nothing very interesting, but fill out the missing puzzle pieces I have missed from the next story.

I remember the cover just not the story.
