It’s Career Week at Sweet Valley High, and Liz and Todd Wilkins both get internships at the Sweet Valley Tribune, and Todd gripes because he has to review “Dreamgirls” and Liz gripes because she has to write about sports and they play hockey for no reason in the middle of the SVH hallway during the montage that’s basically all that happens with them. Moving right along…

And I thought the montages couldn’t get any lamer. The New Jessica + Teacher Crush + Playing for Keeps = this hot mess.

In today’s episode, we will be viewing a visual interpretation of Regina’s Legacy, only without Regina, and without a legacy. Then again, Regina’s Legacy lacked those things too, so I won’t hold too big of a grudge against the show.
It isn’t any Wakefield.

It’s just too weird to be reading the last Sweet Valley High book. No Senior Year or University for me, so the end is more than nigh for me. I must say, I’m impressed with the stamina I showed in reaching my goal. I have done what I set out to do, even if it meant sacrificing a few brain cells in the process. Finally, I can read real books and be smart again. And, I can now say with no hesitation and full authority, “That is the stupidest story I ever heard—and I’ve read the entire Sweet Valley High series.”

Truly an unfortunate cover for a book titled “Earthquake.” This is just a myriad of recycled covers, none of which depict the title’s event. Some more viable, interesting options would’ve been a totaled Spanish-style split level, a lavaliere lying dramatically over some rubble, a Sears portrait of an ominous-looking refrigerator… Also, is that Ken Matthews in the lower left corner? He looks… well, sixteen, which is a shock for the series that likes to take thirty-year-olds and pass them off as high schoolers. Just like Grease!

The twins are in black and white, and the logo is shattered! That’s a sure sign of foreboding. The cover artists couldn’t get a better quality cake from Getty Images? They’re supposed to be going out in style. At least they remembered all seventeen candles.

This is Liz and Jess in their “No more pencils, no more books” outfits as they flee their notorious alma mater. Now, I spend much of this blog hating everything Wakefield, but I’m challenging myself to say nothing but positive things since it’s the last numbered book in the series. However, I fear that what’s to come may be the biggest stretch in fiction since, well, Sweet Valley High.

It’s the Big Night, y’all! Liz is apparently back in Baby’s arms, smiling and looking lovey with Todd Wilkins again, while Jess looks like she caught a whiff of someone’s booty burp. Why is it impossible for anyone on these covers to wear something attractive? Were the ‘90s really so unfashionable? Don’t answer that.
