2023 Nostalgia Re-readathon | SVH #95: The Morning After

Could the twins be split forever?

A terrible accident has changed the Wakefields' lives forever. Will Jessica Wakefield ever come to terms with the tragedy?

Brice Patman has finally opened his heart to Pamela - but will he be able to ignore the malicious gossip about her wild past?

When all of Sweet Valley finds out that Lila Fowler has lied about her guidance counselor, her life goes into a tailspin. Finally, Lila's desperate father brings home someone special to help Lila - the mother she never knew! But is it too little, too late?

...and three thousand miles away, a troubled young woman heads west - on a journey that will change Sweet Valley forever!

What I remember most about this book: being SUPER EXCITED to finally meet Lila's mother! In fact, I'm pretty sure that the first SVH book I bought after I gave away my original collection was #98, but we'll get to that when we get to that.

First of all, let me say that I'm still pretty damned impressed with the writing in this book. It is just as strong as A Night to Remember, which is no small feat, because that book was pretty impressive on its own and hard to follow up. But this one picks up right where the last one left off, ( even if the title is a complete and utter misnomer )

That's a lot of plot to pack into 3 1/2 weeks of time and a 215 page book. All of the plot strands are given equal time in the forefront, and it's just really nicely done. Whoever planned this series really put some thought into it, which is perhaps why it is TGMOAT =)
