This book has political scandal, sleuthing, and love schemes, both trying to bring people together and keep them apart. And on that last one, it is twin versus twin. Get ready for some fun! 😉
“The Parent Plot”
Sweet Valley Scale: 4 out of 5 Twins
Elizabeth and Jessica Wakefield’s father is running for mayor of Sweet Valley. Both of the twins are hard at work on the campaign, but they’re taking opposite sides in an even bigger contest: a contest to bring romance into their parents’ lives. Even though Mr. and Mrs. Wakefield only recently separated, Jessica thinks it’s time for them to start dating other people – and she’s going to make sure that’s exactly what happens. But Elizabeth is just as determined to get her parents back together, and she’s thinking up some romantic schemes of her own. It’s Jessica versus Elizabeth – may the best twin win!
So, I admit this book was much better than the last few books, but “The Parent Trap” it was not. So Mr. and Mrs. Wakefield are still separated and living apart. Liz is still super sad about it, but Jessica has moved on. Yep, it’s only been a few weeks, but Jessica thinks that her parents should date other people and she is just the matchmaker to help them find true love, whether they know it, or want it, or not. Good lord, this is so screwed up. I mean if your parents are truly better people without each other – fine. Or is they have had problems for years, or have been trying for years, but none of these statements apply to this situation. I don’t know what else to say…
