Ever get the feeling you've been cheated? We had high hopes for Jessica's diary, which promised to reveal all about Jessica's steamy antics with Jeffrey French behind Liz's back. But unlike Liz's secret diary, which featured a whole romance with Ken, this is basically just a recap of SVH books 30-40 with a few references to #poorjeffrey shoehorned in! Join us for a trip down memory lane featuring highs (Jessa Fields! Tofu-Glo!) and...

Jessica comes up with a scheme to both go to the big dance with college boy Zach AND stay in the Theta sorority's good books - and it's unhinged even by her standards. Will Liz go along with it?(Well, hat do you think?) And the Sweet Valley High gang's frankly worrying plan to bring home the twins gets going - will that old trick reverse psych...

The Wakefield twins are still at SVU - and it looks like they won't be coming home. High on her inexplicable success in the journalism competition and her own massive sense of entitlement, Liz is determined to shine at SVU - but she may be out of her depth. Meanwhile Jessica is so smitten by Zach (who is remarkably tolerant of her consistently unhinged behaviour) that she's decided to stay in college too #poorken. Can their pals pe...

We all know that when it comes to journalism Elizabeth's favourite subject is Sweet Valley, so when she's inexplicably allowed to enter a college feature writing competition on student life, she's stumped for an angle. Luckily for us, but unfortunately for her rivals, she finds the perfect topic for her hilariously ignorant yet sanctimonious style! Meanwhile Jessica continues to date Zach (#poorKen) and spin him a web of lies. But ...

Despite Jessica's appalling academic record, Ned and Alice have decided that the best way for her and Liz to recover from the SAT drama is to take them out of school for a week and send them off to Sweet Valley University to stay with Steven. Why? Who knows! But we do know that the twins have very different visions of the college experience. Jessica is determined to spend the week impressing college guys (urgh and also, Ken who?) w...

The twins resit the SATs, but while Liz's stress free approach to the exams leads to triumph, Jessica's serious studying leads to disaster. When Jessica is suspended from school, Elizabeth is determined to prove her twin's innocence. How? With an inexplicably legally binding mock trial, of course! But when Jessica's school records are revealed, will they help or hinder her cause? We always suspected the educational standards at SVH...

It’s SAT time and Liz is stressing out, while Jessica is totally chill. But there’s a shock in store when the results come out! Jessica has aced the exams, while Liz has got the worst test results of her life. While Jessica fears being labelled a “nerd in hip clothes” (she wishes), Liz starts to spiral. Is the perfect twin actually not as smart as she thought she was? She looks to Todd for comfort, but offers from college sports re...

The gang are still out in the desert, and things are getting even more dangerous. Eagle attacks! Floods! And of course murderous (and in one case hunky) OTG convicts! But if any proof were needed that nothing can keep these freaks down, it's surely the fact that even when facing their imminent deaths, the SVH gang are still doing what they do best: bickering and flirting.There's a time and a place, lads, and this is not it!

We find the gang right where we left them in Death Valley - stuck between a storm and a cave full of skeletons and scorpions. Things are getting desperate for the Sweet Valley Six, as they try and make it across the desert with nothing to sustain them but a few granola bars. Unsurprisingly, they all start losing their minds - especially Bruce. Yes, it's the infamous snake murder scene! Elsewhere Liz and astronomer (?!) Ken rekindle...

But Jessica tricks foolish Todd into taking them even further out of their way in order to find the third gold hoard! Consumed by gold fever, soon the gang are throwing their cans of food away to make room for trea...

Pack your rucksacks and fill your single water bottle, we're heading to Death Valley! Yes, having all placed highly in an essay competition which we can only assume some of them were forced to enter at gunpoint, the twins, Todd, Ken, Bruce and Heather are hiking through the desert without any adult supervision. It all sounds absolutely hellish and not just because Liz is in full good girl bossy mode. But the gang's squabbles are fo...

Some really do like it hot, and Ken in particular is loving his delightful new look. He and Todd are determined to win back the twins - but will they get the sticky end of the lollipop?

Like Margo and Nora before her, Karyn has headed west to California so there's no new ep this week! But we do have the third installment of Anna's unhinged 2002 fanfic, From Here to Sweet Valley, which I think we can all agree is a more realistic depiction of the twins' adult lives than Sweet Valley Confidential. Liz reaches out to an old friend, Jessica has worrying thoughts about Bruce, and Winston attempts to flee his terrifying...

We're back! And we're not the only ones making a grand return. Yes, it's been a year since we bid a fond farewell to our favourite psychopath, but back then we didn't know (and neither did the ghostwriters, because they're clearly just making this up as they go along) that Margo had a twin!
