Sweet Valley Twins: Best Friends by Francine Pascal, Nicole Andelfinger

3.0

Unfortunately, I just didn’t enjoy this one. The illustrations were great- very manga-like and colourful- but the story was just so off-putting. It felt so stressful and negative- bullying, sister issues, drama at every turn. And when it came time to apologize, it was forced and insincere. And then… the same girl that was bullied, played the same prank back to the bullies. Where was the “happy ending” or redeeming message in the end?
I don’t know… I know these things all happen in middle school. But I just don’t want to read a fiction graphic novel about it (and not sure my students would either).
