Here Comes the Bride

Sweet Valley University #20

by Francine Pascal (Creator), Laurie John

From this day forward...

Billie Winkler doesn't know what's gotten into Steven Wakefield. She thought he was ready to tie the knot, but now he's busy quoting divorce statistics. Steven's acting like a nervous wreck - not at all like the man she wants to marry.

Steven Wakefield is not a happy groom. His fiancée, Billie, is downright moody, the Wakefield house has turned to chaos, the caterers have left town with the deposit, and the wedding rings are missing. Is it time to call the whole thing off?

Jessica Wakefield is furious at her ex-husband, Mike McAllery. Just when she thinks he's out of her life for good, Steven asks Mike to be best man at his wedding. But Jessica refuses to walk down the aisle with Mike again! What's a poor bridesmaid to do?

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.

SWEET VALLEY UNIVERSITY
Written by Francine Pascal
General Review for series as I cannot remember each novel.

I read Sweet Valley University when I was in junior high school to high school. While there is sexual content it is very mild (not explicit) compared to teen books today. If you like the Sweet Valley High you will love this series as it continues with the twins' story as they attend University and are away from their parents. I am not sure how they would relate to teens today as this was before cell phones were common and social media. They are fun teen romances with "real-life" situation. I did not complete the series as I started to save for school so I wasn't able to collect them any further (they are out of print). I still have the books I bought and may try to read one again (I did reread the series a few times).

I loved this one! The twentieth book in the college series, Here Comes the Bride reads like one extended Frasier episode. Anyone who’s ever planned a wedding knows just how hectic life becomes, and Laurie John describes it perfectly.

The on-again, off-again wedding of Steven and Billie is on-again, at the moment, and the Wakefields are in a constant tizzy trying to organize the last-minute wedding details as the date approaches. Both the bride and groom are extremely stressed, and more than once have their doubts about the entire affair. You’ll have to read the book to find out if they go through with it, though. And as far as the rest of the Sweet Valley gang, they’re just trying to hold onto their sanity amidst the chaos! One of my favorite characters, Mike, has a pretty big part in this volume, and it’s not hard to guess why he comes back. The real question is, will he stay? Again, you’ll have to read Here Comes the Bride to find out.
