Jessica has fallen for mysterious Robbie October, but she can't get his attention. Mr. Collins and Ms. Dalton aren't getting along, and Bruce Patman keeps making snide comments.
This is a good book, and it was always one of my favorites. On this reading, I still enjoyed the story, but some parts bored me. I read this book many times as a teen, so I remember the story quite clearly. I think that is why it bored me at times.
I don't care for this book. DeeDee is annoying.
In Sweet Valley High #23, Say Goodbye, Todd Wilkins is moving to Vermont. He breaks the sad news to Elizabeth. The unhappy couple mopes around for the entire story, feeling sorry for themselves.
Gah. I don't like Todd, and I can't stand Liz wandering around, feeling depressed. It is so boring! Please, Todd, just hurry up and leave. I was tempted to skip this book, but I managed to read it.
On the bright side, Todd is leaving! This is also another book that I didn't read when young. I think it worked out great back then when I read the books that had Todd, and then I read books with Liz's second boyfriend, Jeffrey. I never had to read the sappy stuff where Liz goes around feeling sorry for herself because she loses Todd. It's just too depressing. I don't want to read about that!
I do not like this book.

You're right about reading a book so many times you remember it too well so it's not a surprise. Sometimes the familiarity is welcome, sometimes it bores because there isn't as much suspense.
As to Liz's boyfriends, while I never hated Todd, I always thought Jeffrey was a better boyfriend. Highly underrated. He seemed much more interesting.
