Sweet Valley High #5: All Night Long

By -


Jessica is obsessed with Scott, an older guy who’s either 18 or 21. They mention that he’s 18, but Liz thinks he’s older and Jess lied about his age so their parents wouldn’t worry. Both girls were invited to a beach party with his friends, but their parents put their foot down…for once. Jess lies and says she’s going out with Cara, but actually goes to his party.

The party itself is fairly lame, with a bunch of college kids sitting on the beach, drinking beer and gossiping. Jess tries to play it cool and make everyone like her, but then realizes that they all know she’s too young for him. They do pass around a joint and Jess is all shocked.

Scott takes her out into the woods and she willingly goes along, just wearing a bikini, which proves she learned nothing from her relationship with Bruce. He puts the moves on her, she refuses and he makes a comment about her being too young before ditching her there. She eventually finds her way out, but he’s too drunk to drive her back and hides the keys, leaving her stuck all night.

Liz is incredibly worried about her twin because they have a test to be tour guides in the summer and Jess is going to miss the test. Jess manages to call, saying she’ll be there in time for the test, as long as Liz covers for her. Liz dresses up like Jess and passes herself off as her twin to their mom, then goes to school where everyone thinks she’s Jessica.

She takes her test and then runs into Todd. They have a big fight about her constantly covering for Jessica and they seemingly breakup. She runs into Cara and makes up a story about Scott being an ass, her telling him off and then pushing him into the lake and of course Cara spreads the story all across the school.

Liz has to take Jessica’s test and she manages to show up just in time for cheerleading practice. The next day they discover that Liz passed her test, but failed Jessica’s and because her sister is such a bitch, she blames her for everything. Liz gets depressed because her sister and boyfriend hate her. Luckily she makes up with Todd and they get back at Jess by not asking her for ice cream with them. Ooh, burn. Then the twins make up when Jessica gets the chance to retake her test. Yay for happy endings?

    I always thought he looked way older than college.

The Immortal (Christopher Pike)

This was one of my favorite Christopher Pike books when I was younger. The whole ground glass in the hamburger thing really freaked me out and I was always eyeing the person who made my hamburgers suspiciously. Then I read some article in college about how ground glass actually can’t kill you because your body just digests it and pushes it out. It kind of made me a little pissed off at Pike… Josie and Helen are best friends, but in that high school way, where they actually don’t really like each other. Helen’s family is kind of poor, but that didn’t stop them from sending her to Greece the summer before. Now they’re going back, thanks to Josie’s dad. He’s a screenwriter and traveling with his stuckup, prissy girlfriend Silk. The book flashes back to two women and I bet you know where this is going. Sryope and Phthia were two women living during ancient times. Phthia was obsessed with a guy who Sryope secretly loved. She made him indebted to her and then got bored and ran off with other

Eye Candy (R.L. Stine)

This post is getting TONS of attention due to the MTV television show. For those who recently found my blog, please keep in mind that this review is nearly two years old. I'll comment when you comment, but I've read so many books since then that this one isn't very fresh in my mind. Part One: Eye Candy opens with our unknown killer out on a date with a girl named Alesha who he met through a dating website. Every time she asks him a question, he responds and thinks to himself how he's lying to her. After coffee, they decide to grab dinner, but he can't help looking at her man hands, which he calls Hulk hands, and how she laughs just like his mom. They head back to her apartment, and she immediately throws herself at him. They kiss a little and he then proceeds to choke her to death in her apartment. As if that wasn't enough, he takes a knife from her kitchen and cuts off each of her fingers, thinking they feel like asparagus. The killer then reveals

Monster (Christopher Pike)

I’ve read this book a few times lately and every time, go into it thinking that I don’t really like it, but then I remember that I do. Maybe because there aren’t any sci-fi elements or aliens in it! Well there are alien like things, but not like in his later books. Angela is a fairly new kid at school, who somehow gets invited to a party with all the popular kids. Her best friend Mary walks into the party, brandishing a shotgun. Without saying a word, she blows away football player Todd and cheerleader Kathy. Five seconds later, she points the gun at her own boyfriend Jim. Angela stops her by screaming and Mary retaliates by kicking her in the face. Jim, who’s basically a big pussy, runs off into the woods, with Mary hot on his tale. Angela follows and runs into Lieutenant Nguyen, who listens to what she says and then goes after Mary. Angela wanders into the woods and runs into Jim. Mary pops up and tells them that Jim “isn’t human” and nearly kills him, before Nguyen stops her. Nguyen
