The Gossip War | 
pickThis one feels a bit different with more real-life references than the books usually have! Plus, we get to see the cat Mischief and Mrs. Harrington again who helps out Liz, Lila & Olivia with their project on McCarthyism. Oddly, Janet, Kimberly & Betsy are into beatnik poetry while Ellen‘s private phone line causes a stir until Jessica cooks up trouble with 3-way calling! Rumors almost split the Unicorns up for good! But my copy ends mid-sentence!
JenlovesJT47 Which part ends mid sentence? I could look it up for you. Gah I remember being a victim of the 3-way calling thing in the 90s lol. 1w
TorieStorieS @JenlovesJT47 The very last page ends mid-sentence and there‘s no next book announcement, so it must be a misprint! I checked on Anna‘s Archive and it ends the same way! I bought another one online from ThriftBooks and it also ends that way… so I added it to my list to look for in person in case there‘s a reprinted correction out there somewhere! And yes… this one really specifically dates the series!! 1w
JenlovesJT47 How weird!! I have a physical copy of this book but I don‘t have access to it. ☹️ 1w

TorieStorieS @JenlovesJT47 Well, it would be interesting to see someday if your copy has the real ending! It‘s definitely strange, but not my only Sweet Valley misprint! My copy of Double Love has a whole repeated section and then is missing the number of pages that were repeated! So, technically, I‘ve never actually read the entire first book!😳 1w
JenlovesJT47 Intriguing! At one point I had 2-3 copies of Double Love. When the last Senior Year book came out, Sweet 18, it came as two books with Double Love included. 1w
TorieStorieS @JenlovesJT47 Yeah— I have a copy of the new version (that weird updated one they tried) but I try to remember to look for a new old copy! 1w
