Summary: Take Me On
Comment: Take Me On is a really good book. Basicaaly Conner's life is really messed up. Conner's mom has to go to re-hab for drinking and driving so Conner is stuck with his ex-step father for a month. He doesn't want help from anyone and wishes everyone would leave him alone. Meanwhile, everyone telling Jessica she should give Will a second chance. Take Me On is reallly exciting and has alot of conflict. Angel is also working really hard to get in the RA program. This book was really good, there was never a dull moment! I have read alot of Sweet Valley books, this wasn't the best one but it was deffinitly worth reading!

Summary: Book 11 in the SVH Senior Year Series
Comment: After brooding in the background for the past several books, Conner McDermott's back in the spotlight in "Take Me On", the eleventh book in the SVH Senior Year series. In the last story ("Broken Angel"), Conner's alcoholic mom was in an accident and received a DWI. Now, as part of her punishment from the judge, she's forced to go to a rehab clinic in Minnesota for one month, leaving Conner and Megan in the care of Gary, Conner's former stepfather and Megan's biological father. That situation has its ups and downs. For starters, Megan's thrilled her father's back in her life after all these years, but Conner doesn't trust him an inch and constantly argues with the guy. But that's Conner's typical charm. He's never one to actually trust or get along with other people.
As for the Wakefield twins and their family, they're moving out of the Fowler's mansion. (Yay! I thought it was a little too weird having the Fowlers and Wakefields living together.) Their house was finally rebuilt after the destructive earthquake that demolished several homes and buildings in the finalized Sweet Valley High series. Jessica is still confused over her feelings for Will Simmons--and occasionally for Jeremy Aames, who seems to have dropped out of the picture entirely. And Liz is still mooning over Conner like a lovesick cow. No change there. (Yawn.)
Meanwhile, Angel Desmond is looking for a way to financially make it at Stanford University. He's applying for a Resident Assistant position there, which is the only way he can attend the college. Besides that bit of pressure, there's the possibility he may have to leave earlier if he is accepted, which puts a strain on his relationship with Tia, who doesn't really want him to go. She's afraid he'll leave her for a college woman, so she considers losing her virginity to him (which, in my opinion, is one of the worst possible reasons to have sex). I was actually very surprised to find out Angel and Tia weren't sexually active; after all, they've been together for months (or is it years? I don't remember.) Anyway, most guys wouldn't last a month or two, let alone a year or more. I guess I had just assumed they were already doing not, but I guess not.
"Take Me On" is one of the many compulsively-readable books in this series. Conner, apparently, has more family skeletons in his closet by the phone call he overhears of Gary's and the legal documents he finds in his mother's bedroom; Jess is falling in love all over again--but with the wrong guy (imo); and Angel is on his way to becoming a Stanford freshman. I can't wait to start the next book in this series: "Bad Girl".

Summary: Another great Senior Year
Comment: This is the 11th book in the series and although it isn't one of the best, it isn't boring like some of the books can get. This is what is happening.
Conner's mum goes to rehab after drink driving and Conner's stepdad (Megan's dad) Gary comes to look after them. Conner is not thrilled but Megan is. It becomes like a contest for Megan's attention between Gary and Conner. When Megan tells Conner Gary's thinking of moving back to Sweet Valley Conner is suspicious and when he eavesdrops on a conversation he realises Gary has been lying to Megan.
Things are getting hot between Jessica and Will. Jessica is trying to deny her feelings for Will but it's not helping that her mum is charmed by him and Elizabeth is saying she should get together with him.
Tia's wondering if she should take the next step with Angel before he goes to Stanford. When she says that she's ready and Angel says hes not, she gets in a huff with him. Will they sort it out before he goes?
As you can see nothing major happening here, just a fun read. If you like this books you should check out the rest in the series.
Happy Reading :)
