From Publishers Weekly
It had to happen: Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield, the darlings of Sweet Valley High, have graduated to swinging college life. Since Sweet Valley University is quite the party school, fun-loving Jessica fits right in. Not so the more somber Elizabeth, whose world begins to crumble right after she and her twin step into their dorm room. First of all, Jessica soon steps right back out, abandoning her sister when a popular sophomore asks her to move into her suite. To make matters worse, both Elizabeth's boyfriend, Todd, and her best friend, Enid, appear to have little time for her. It all adds up to a rather dispiriting picture, and Elizabeth spends an inordinate amount of time crying in her room--or buried in her books in the library. Faithful fans of the other series starring the Wakefields may not be ready for this sobering scenario--or for the inevitable issues of drinking (Elizabeth's conniving new roommate does) or sex (Todd wants to; Elizabeth refuses) that are common to the college experience. But there's also plenty of innocuous intrigue built into Pascal's plot, which--though it leaves some questions unanswered--may be resolved in the series' second installment, Love, Lies, and Jessica Wakefield . Ages 12-up.

About Francine Pascal
**Francine Pascal**, a native New Yorker, is an author best known for creating the Sweet Valley series of young adult novels. Sweet Valley High was the backbone of the collection, and was made into a popular television series. There were also several spin-offs, including The Unicorn Club, Sweet Valley University, and Sweet Valley Sorority.<p></p>
Francine Rubin graduated from New York University in 1958. It was there that she first met author and journalist [John Pascal][1] and, in 1965, they were married (the second marriage for each). Francine often credited John as her writing mentor, and they collaborated on several projects, including writing scripts for the ABC soap opera *The Young Marrieds*, which aired from 1964 - 1966. John died of cancer in 1981, at 49 years old.<p></p>
Francine's brother was the prolific Broadway playwright and librettist [Michael Stewart][2], who wrote the books to such Broadway musical hits as *Bye Bye Birdie*, *Hello, Dolly!*, and *42nd Street*. Francine, her husband John, and her brother Michael worked together writing the book to the Broadway musical *George M!*, which ran at the Palace Theatre from 1968 - 1970. A television version of *George M!* was aired on NBC in 1970.<p></p>
Michael Stewart died in 1987. Since then, Francine has revised his musical *Mack & Mabel*. She has also worked on the revision of another of his musicals, *Carnival!*, for the Kennedy Center in Washington.<p></p>
Francine's first young adult novel, published in 1977, was called *Hangin' Out with Cici*, in which her heroine, Victoria Martin, went back in time and met her mother as a teenager. It was televised as an ABC After-School Special entitled *My Mother Was Never a Kid*. She has written two other Victoria Martin books: *My First Love and Other Disasters*, and *Love and Betrayal & Hold the Mayo*. Another of her early novels, *The Hand-Me-Down Kid*, was also made into an ABC After-School Special.<p></p>
