Rating:  Summary: Book 11 in the SVH Senior Year Series Review: After brooding in the background for the past several books, Conner McDermott's back in the spotlight in "Take Me On", the eleventh book in the SVH Senior Year series. In the last story ("Broken Angel"), Conner's alcoholic mom was in an accident and received a DWI. Now, as part of her punishment from the judge, she's forced to go to a rehab clinic in Minnesota for one month, leaving Conner and Megan in the care of Gary, Conner's former stepfather and Megan's biological father. That situation has its ups and downs. For starters, Megan's thrilled her father's back in her life after all these years, but Conner doesn't trust him an inch and constantly argues with the guy. But that's Conner's typical charm. He's never one to actually trust or get along with other people.As for the Wakefield twins and their family, they're moving out of the Fowler's mansion. (Yay! I thought it was a little too weird having the Fowlers and Wakefields living together.) Their house was finally rebuilt after the destructive earthquake that demolished several homes and buildings in the finalized Sweet Valley High series. Jessica is still confused over her feelings for Will Simmons--and occasionally for Jeremy Aames, who seems to have dropped out of the picture entirely. And Liz is still mooning over Conner like a lovesick cow. No change there. (Yawn.) Meanwhile, Angel Desmond is looking for a way to financially make it at Stanford University. He's applying for a Resident Assistant position there, which is the only way he can attend the college. Besides that bit of pressure, there's the possibility he may have to leave earlier if he is accepted, which puts a strain on his relationship with Tia, who doesn't really want him to go. She's afraid he'll leave her for a college woman, so she considers losing her virginity to him (which, in my opinion, is one of the worst possible reasons to have sex). I was actually very surprised to find out Angel and Tia weren't sexually active; after all, they've been together for months (or is it years? I don't remember.) Anyway, most guys wouldn't last a month or two, let alone a year or more. I guess I had just assumed they were already doing not, but I guess not. "Take Me On" is one of the many compulsively-readable books in this series. Conner, apparently, has more family skeletons in his closet by the phone call he overhears of Gary's and the legal documents he finds in his mother's bedroom; Jess is falling in love all over again--but with the wrong guy (imo); and Angel is on his way to becoming a Stanford freshman. I can't wait to start the next book in this series: "Bad Girl".
Rating:  Summary: Take Me On Review: Conner is faced with a shock reality. Hope everything at home be alright after this. Liz is love-sick. Jessica was hurt badly and is unsure whether or not to trust Will again! But eventually does. Jeremy wanted to take a break, but wants Jessica back.

Rating:  Summary: AWESOME =) Review: I absolutely LOVED this book! I have been reading Sweet Valley books for about 3 years, and I think this one is one of the bestest ones! I love the Jessica/Will story line. I can't wait to see what happens on their date. I can't believe what a witch Lila is being though! I know she has been mean in the past, but in the senior year series, she has been just such a witch! I would recomend this book to EVERYONE! go out and buy it, believe me, you'll LOVE it! =)
Rating:  Summary: WOAH! SO COOL! THIS BOOK WAS GREAT! Review: I loved this book! It is even good compared to the other 372 sweet valley books I have read! The action between Conner and Liz was way intense duuuuuude I like could feel the tension building through the whole book making me feel eager to read the next! I thought that Tommy Knutson was way cool in this book he used to be such a country boy but now he is a real live party dude! I loved how he was so supportive of Amber Wattkins when she lost her mom's parrot!, he even went worm hunting with her little brother Joe Wattkins! I can definatly feel romance brewing between Amber and Tommy and hey, if it doesn't work out between them i'd love to have Tommy as a boyfriend! I don't know if Sweet Valley high is quite ready for the new girl Tamara Jenkins, she is like way to big cityish for a small town like sweet valley and I hate how she made Liz take care of her horse while she went shopping at the mall even though liz had a doctor's appointment. I personally hope that Tamara moves ASAP she is BIG trouble I can already tell. well not much else to say except I loooooooved it.
Rating:  Summary: Exciting Review: I thought that this was one of the better books. I'm loving the Jessica and Will storyline, it has become so good, but I do feel sorry for Jeremy. Although I don't like the Elizabeth storyline where she keeps moping around about Conner, and she doesn't seem to care about anything else besides Conner, and I think that it's time that she either move on or hook up with him. I also liked the Tia and Angel storyline. I can't wait for the next book.
Rating:  Summary: GREAT AS ALWAYS Review: number 11 in this great series wasn't a let down. this book finally gave us more info. about conner's family. there was also stuff about tia and angel, and jessica ane will. not much from melissa or jeremy, but it was still great. i recommend this book to anyone who loves good stories.
Rating:  Summary: It was ok Review: Take Me On dealed with Conner private life that hardly anyone at Sweet Valley High knew about how Conner was going though a hard time dealing with his mother drinking and she get put on probation for drunk driving about how much pain Conner felt and anger at his step dad for just taking over and doing whatever he wanted Conner didnt want his step dad there but dealed with it for Megan and Conner was being a loving brother and protecting his sister.
Rating:  Summary: Take Me On Review: Take Me On is a really good book. Basicaaly Conner's life is really messed up. Conner's mom has to go to re-hab for drinking and driving so Conner is stuck with his ex-step father for a month. He doesn't want help from anyone and wishes everyone would leave him alone. Meanwhile, everyone telling Jessica she should give Will a second chance. Take Me On is reallly exciting and has alot of conflict. Angel is also working really hard to get in the RA program. This book was really good, there was never a dull moment! I have read alot of Sweet Valley books, this wasn't the best one but it was deffinitly worth reading!
Rating:  Summary: Finally! This book seems to be the one that is getting.... Review: things moving! I absolutely looooove the whole Will/Jessica thing. I think they make a really really cute couple. I'm glad that what happened in this book did cuz now I'm positive they will hook up. ALSO. The Liz/Conner thing is getting me frustrated. I think that they next book will have something to do with that but this one was the same as the last 5 as far as this situation goes. I HIGHLY recommend this book-it was sooooooooo good! ADIOS!
