This review is from: Romeo and 2 Juliets (Sweet Valley Twins) (Library Binding)

I read this long ago, when it first came out. It's one of my favorite Twins book, though I outgrew them years ago. I've always thought Romeo and Juliet was romantic and it was funny for a change to have Elizabeth causing all the trouble. SInce Jessica was sick on the day of the tryouts, Elizabeth took her place. However, when she started acting, she found that she loved it, especially having Todd as Romeo. Elizabeth and Jessica rival each other and completely mess up the performance... until the end!

4.0 out of 5 stars I guess this was an okay book, January 23, 2000

I thought this book was okay but i just noticed that Elizabeth acts tougher in this book. I wish just once that Elizabeth could get her way instead of Jessica always getting what she wants. Also the plot was kind of junk.
