Since [info]sundancekid just did a review of "Kidnapped" I thought it was appropriate to do a review of another mystery SVH.

Sweet Valley High #26, Hostage! or, Girls Who've Read Too Many Whodunnits.


This book is even more unrealistic than most. IRL Elizabeth and Jessica would never have gotten through this alive. Even "Famous Five" are more realistic, despite the kids being even younger.

The A Plot )

The B Plot: Doesn't exist. In fact, we hardly hear of ANY people other than the ones mentioned above. There are small mentionings here and there of Ken failing English and that he'll be forced to quit football if he does, because they don't want stupid jocks at SVH. There are only about 5 sentences devoted to this in the entire book though, except for the last page-and-a-half introduction to the next book: Lovestruck
