I messed up big-time.
And I know I should let her go.
I should just let Jessica be with her new boyfriend.

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.

Got the book from Jess via BookMooch, a Sweet Valley senior high I've never read before (and I'm such a big fan).

Book was more worn than I thought it would be, but a good read, nevertheless. I like it though :) although a little boring at times (I dont like Angel's story and Jess seems very distracted all the time).

I enjoy reading the Sweet Valley books (any of the years) because they are light hearted as well as quick and easy to read. I don't think that they will win any prizes for fantastic writing but if you are interetsed in a light teen read then these are for you.

Again, Will's a dick. Never liked him much.

I have read so many of these books I can't remember all of them.
