3.0 out of 5 stars NOT AS GOOD AS THE LATEST BOOKS, April 21, 1999

By A Customer

In this book, Jessica is the most self-centered annoying little twerp that she's ever been. I'll tell you why.

First of all, Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield are twin sisters. They are supposed to love each other, right? WRONG!!! What really appalls me about Jessica is the casual way in which she uses Elizabeth. For instance, in this book, Jessica had no regard for Elizabeth's feelings. She didn't have any regrets about the fact that she broke up Enid and Ronnie, and Elizabeth and Enid. She just let Enid go on thinking that it was Elizabeth who had betrayed her. Secondly, I didn't like the fact that she thinks she can have anyone or anything that she wants. And use them. In this book, Jessica has her sights set on the queen's crown and Bruce Patman. She uses Elizabeth, Enid, Ronnie and a letter of Enid's to get the crown. I don't know why she bothers with Bruce. Thirdly, I don't like her attitude. She breezes in, all excited one minute and then comes flying back in again. I just find it annoying.

Well, that's all, I guess.

2.0 out of 5 stars An Average SVH Book...(** 1/2), August 23, 2003

By	Ne0nXSuNsHine "Ne0nXSuNsHine" (Glitter Beach, Cali) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Secrets (Mass Market Paperback)

When Jessica finds out about Enids Terrible Past, who shes Running Against as Prom Queen, she Uses It to her Advantage and Spreads the News All over School, Wiping Out her Competitions Chance of Winning. To make thing worse, Enids Boy-Freind (Who, By the Way, was a Total Jerk) Breaks Up with Her Because of her Doings in the Past. I Felt that this Book was a Little Short Compared to its Ninteen Chapter Predrecessor...Overall, it was Okay, and In the End, Jessica Finally Got what She Deserved...

4.0 out of 5 stars Secrets are not secrets in Sweet Valley!, July 22, 2001

By	Suvi (Rovaniemi, Finland) - See all my reviews

In a little town (like Sweet Valley) people know what's going on with there and what's going on with here. They know each other's past and secrets. So, secrets are not secrets in Sweet Valley! In this book, Jessica wants to be the beautiful queen of the Sweet Valley Fall Dance. If she wins the competition, Bruce Patman will be in Jessica's arms. But Enid Rollins (Elizabeth Wakefield's best friend) is the only person standing in Jessica's way. When Jessica finds out a terrible secret of Enid's past, Jessica is sure that she will be the queen of the Fall Dance. Only Elizabeth can help Enid, but can she stop Jessica?
