Reviews
"Before there was Gossip Girl, there was Sweet Valley High...Sweet Valley Confidential makes a compelling enough companion that we actually missed two subway stops because we were caught up in its frothy fun." --Wall Street Journal
"Fans who grew up on SVH will delight in Pascal's return to sunny California. Seeing everyone all grown up--and stumbling through their 20s -- is a huge treat." --Romantic Times "We catch up on what's been going on with Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield in the just-released Sweet Valley Confidential. It's a perfect storm of decades past, and we are LOVING it." --MTV Buzzworthy Blog "I can't remember the last time I ignored my cell phone, my DVR backlog and my emails (something about a Reese Witherspoon wedding?) to read a book--an actual book!--cover to cover. For one lovely Saturday afternoon in late March, it was a joy to unplug from my life and excitedly catch up with a few old friends. Pure love. Actually, make that double love." --The Huffington Post "For the vast canon of works devoted to the modern gal's sexual escapades and shoe-shopping habits, including Candace Bushnell's Sex and the City and Cecily von Zigesar's Gossip Girl, we have Francine Pascal to thank." --The Daily Beast "It's unexpectedly stirring--you can feel it in your heart, this fluttering memory of caring about Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield." --The Hairpin.com
