Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s winter break & the Wakefields & Todd‘s family go on vacation to a ski chalet. Liz is looking forward to spending time with Todd but he soon ditches her for an older boy named Mark, making her feel left out. Todd is being his usual annoying self displayed on full glory in the SVH books. 😆 They make up after Todd gets grounded for going on the intermediate slopes against his parents‘ wishes. 4⭐️ 80 points

This is my first SV Kids super edition & it was really cute. Jess, Liz, Lila, Amy, Eva, Ellen, Winston & Todd start a Snoopers Club to solve mysteries. Their first mystery is finding out if the new school janitor, Chris Kreeger, is really Santa Claus 🎅🏻. He looks like Santa, has a Santa suit and knows things he shouldn‘t know. It makes me miss being a kid. 5⭐️ 80 points

Mrs. W. has been spending a lot of time with her wealthy client, Frank. She & Mr. W. forget their anniversary. Jess quickly jumps to conclusions & thinks Mrs. W. is getting ready to run off with Frank & convinces Liz & Steven that their parents are headed for divorce. They quickly come up with some crazy schemes to make Frank think their family is a nightmare & hope he will run for the hills. This one was so funny! As pictured here, Jess stalks⬇️

Harpy is “helping” me knit a Sophie Scarf for one of my holiday swaps. I‘m usually all about bright and obnoxious colors, but right now I‘m loving these moody neutrals. I think it will go really well with denim. I hope my match likes the scarf and this yarn.🤞

Honestly? It‘s pretty accurate.

If you‘re on the Fable app you can create a shelfie of 8 or fewer of your favorite reads from the year and they‘ll create a fun little graphic. “Chaotic optimist” is about right.

In this 3rd #SweetValleySpringBreak, the twins snorkel for treasure. Jessica talks her twin into the forbidden Pirate‘s Cove. The undertow isn‘t worth the barnacle covered findings—but they glimpse a shipwreck. Liz starts having nightmares & a mysterious chain letter arrives. Between her dreams & research—plus the discovery of what‘s beneath the barnacles make this fun! Best of all, are the disasters that befall Lila for not doing the chainletter!

Annoyed with Aaron Dallas‘ immature behavior (he crushes graham crackers into crumbs before pouring them in his mouth like a total 4th grader!) & childish fashion (neon shorts & Donald Duck tees!), Jessica breaks up with him before Rick Hunter‘s party. After giving Liz the idea for a classifieds section for The Sixers, a personal ad craze takes over thanks to Jess! Even 7th & 8th graders get into it! Soon everyone is broken up & mayhem erupts!

Uncover the magic of "I‘ll Give You the Sun" by Jandy Nelson in this Manuscript Monday recommendation by Ashley. A cute, wholesome coming of age book to cherish!
