38: FORBIDDEN LOVE Feb 21, 2019

Show notes

OMG you guys, Maria and Michael are engaged! You know, Maria who's just been a background player for the last 37 books and Michael who has never been mentioned before at all? Yeah, we can't say we were too excited either, but everyone in Sweet Valley is losing their shit about it. Meanwhile, we lose our shit at how completely terrible Michael is. Also, how did it take Francine and her team this long to do a book called Forbidden Love?

37: STARTING OVER Feb 07, 2019

Show notes

Oh, Dana. Dana, Dana, Dana. We had such high hopes for you in this book, the first to feature our favourite classic-movie-loving, outrageous-fashion-wearing rock goddess in a starring role. And yet you let us down! Because when your poor cousin Sally moves in with you, after spending years in the care system, you kind of act like a dick! Luckily Jess and Liz are at hand to save the day with an adorable fluffy B-story - we mean puppy.

36: THE NEW JESSICA Jan 24, 2019

Show notes

You may think you are ready for the outfits in this book, but believe us, you are not. Yes, it's time to meet the New Jessica, or should we say Jessa Fields, as Jessica has a makeover and adopts a whole new persona to go with her glamorous new "European" look! Everyone loves it - apart from Liz, the big sap. Grab a copy of Paris Match and join us as we rant about Liz's contrived problems, discover a Sweet Valley shop with a realistic name and come up with an appropriate new slogan for our favourite California town. Oh, and did we mention the outfits? You can follow us on Twitter at @svhpodcast and follow the Headstuff Podcast Network on @HSPodnetwork and @ThisHeadstuff

35: THE FOWLERS OF SWEET VALLEY Dec 28, 2018

Show notes

It's finally here - the story of the many flat-faced bitches who made Lila Fowler the glorious diva we know and love! History experts look away now, as we head back to the French Revolution to meet Lila's aristocratic French ancestors and wonder why the hell she isn't constantly boasting about all these poshos. This book has it all - rural guillotines, cross-dressing bohemians, multiple secret marriages, and family feuds. And we loved it! Hop into your lime-green triumph and enjoy...

34: CHRISTMAS SPECIAL 2018 Dec 13, 2018

Show notes

It's the most wonderful time of the year in the most wonderful place on earth (at least that's what all the locals think)! But Liz's dreams of a perfect Christmas - including a visit from Todd - are shattered when Suzanne Devlin, last seen wreaking havoc in Too Good To Be True insists on coming to stay for an entire fortnight. Not even the most ridiculous, elaborate Secret Santa scheme ever (what were you thinking, Mr Collins?) can make up for this nightmare before Christmas. The jingle-bells return to the studio as we discuss this festive fiasco. You can follow us on Twitter at @svhpodcast and follow the Headstuff Podcast Network on @HSPodnetwork and @ThisHeadstuff

33: TAKING SIDES Nov 29, 2018

Show notes

It's Wakefield versus Wakefield when the twins become rival matchmakers in a book that turned out to be WAY more entertaining than we expected. Will Liz be able to unite Enid with hunky (but increasingly problematic) new boy Jeffrey French or will Jess manage to fix him up with Lila? Spoiler:the answer to both questions is no! Meanwhile the twins' cousin shows up to make a show of Jessica, questions are raised about the lack of public spending in Sweet Valley, and there's a very special charity auction that no one - least of all us - will ever forget.

32: JEALOUS LIES Nov 15, 2018

Show notes

Sandy Bacon is jealous of her perfect best friend Jean, and not just because Jean has a name that doesn't sound like a disaster at a beach picnic. Will Sandra successfully sabotage Jean's attempts to join Sweet Valley's stupid sorority? Meanwhile Steven Wakefield decides he's dropping out of college to sail the world working on a cruise ship. Yes, really. Join us as we return to the Tennis Shop to discuss all of the above plus Sandra's frankly amazing PBA jacket.

31: BITTER RIVALS Nov 01, 2018

Show notes

The classic sitcom was wrong - three's definitely not company, as poor old Enid finds out when Elizabeth's childhood best friend Amy Sutton moves back to town. Meanwhile Jessica uses her new agony aunt powers for evil, Lila displays a frankly worrying obsession with her hunky cousin, and a fancy dress party inspires some amazing - and amazingly boring - ensembles.

30: ALONE IN THE CROWD Oct 18, 2018

Show notes

It's finally here - the greatest ever title and the best ever cover in the Sweet Valley canon. This books has got Elizabeth at her most patronising. It's got musical loner Lynne Henry writing a masterpiece and embracing the jumpsuit life. It's got Guy Chesney being way more of a dick than we remembered. And it's got Jessica...in a rocking chair? All this and a musical surprise! You can follow us on Twitter at @svhpodcast and follow the HeadStuff Podcast Network on @HSPodnetwork and @ThisHeadStuff

29: LOVESTRUCK Oct 04, 2018

Show notes

Will Suzanne succeed in changing Ken? He likes pizza and rock and roll, she likes fancy food and classic music, and according to the rigid rules of Sweet Valley you can't possibly like both, so you know things are going to go wrong. Especially when the entire population are losing their shit over the town's centennial celebrations. Will Ken be inspired by the literary genius of Elizabeth Wakefield? Will Jessica make a mess of the Centennial picnic? And is Suzanne's dad right about SVH's obsession with sports? We discuss it all.
