Summary: Book 23 in the SVH: Senior Year Series
Review: Although Conner McDermott now has total freedom and a father who buys him alcohol, he still isn't happy. It's not until he ends up in the hospital due to alcohol poisoning that he "see the light" and returns home, agreeing to enter rehab. But first he breaks up with Elizabeth Wakefield, which allows the inevitable to happen: Liz and Evan Plummer hook up.

Meanwhile, Melissa Fox and Will Simmons are back in the plot loop again, though there's not much to tell. Will's still at home moping after his big football injury that lost him everything-his football position, scholarship, and girlfriend, who is now falling for Will's replacement and Maria Slater's ex: Ken Matthews.

Overall, I thought "Falling Apart" was a lukewarm book. There were some interesting moments, as I've mentioned above, but nothing earth-shattering. Even Conner and Liz's break up wasn't that big of a deal; it was long overdue, in my opinion. Worth mentioning, though, is Andy Marsden's humorous list on page 165 in regard to the homecoming dance that even he attends.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Enjoyed Reading This Book
Review: I thought that this book was very good. I don't like Jessica's behavior towards Elizabeth in this book, I think that Jessica is kind of going back to her selfish ways. I like the Liz and Evan storyline, but I hope that Liz doesn't jump into a relationship too soon. I thought that Andy's storyline was very realistic. Also to my amazment, I actually felt sorry for Melissa. I can't wait to read the next book to find out what will happen with these exciting new storylines. I'm also glad that Conner has gotten his act together, it's about time.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: pretty good

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Let the Excitement Begin
Review: Lately some of these books have been getting boring.This one makes it interesting. No one knows what to expect. I think that Jeremy and Jessica might be able to work things out, but I hate that Liz has taken an interest in Evan. I waited so long for her and Conner to get together. In my opinion they belong together. I'm really starting to think Melissa to be evil. I won't tell all. You'll have to read the book! It's a great book though. I couldn't put it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Falling Apart
Review: Oh my gosh!! FINALLY Conner wakes up! It's about time! I cried so hard when I read them breaking up... sorry, yes, they break up! That whole Liz and Evan thing is [***]! Liz is in love with Conner, even though he hurt her, and if that's not enough, SHE BROKE UP WITH HIM A FEW DAYS AGO! come on, Liz! Wake up! That whole thing in the end about jess being [mad] at jeremy because he was visualing dancing w/ jess was soo funny! "jeremy looks happy. da[r]n." that was great. overall, this book was sad but good!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Falling Apart
Review: This book was pretty good but the not best SVHSY.The best part about it was when you realised that Jeremy and Jessica(the perfect couple)might get together again.All because Jade gave Jeremy this really soppy card while Jeremy gave her this just friends one.Jade begins to flirt again because she doesn't want Jeremy to feel sorry for her.
Conner's off living with his dad and enjoying his total freedom until he goes overboard with the alcohol and ends up in hospital.Will he admit he has a problem?This question is answered in the book.Also Andy has to start getting serious about his future.It's college application time and Andy's grades are not that good.Will he be able to get into college?This might seem a bit vague but I don't want to spoil anything major.You don't actually find out if he gets accepted or anything but you do find out how he tries to get into a good college.
The other storyline which the book is supposed to be centered around is that since Conner took off Elizabeth has been taking comfort in the friendship of Evan Plummer.But does she want it to become something more?Also Jessica wanted Evan to take her to the homecoming dance but since he's going with Liz that's not possible.So Jessica is ignoring Elizabeth and trying to make her feel guilty.
I like this book because it is a fairly easy read and the diary bits between chapters are interesting to haer the characters point of view.This book may not be the best but it's important because many plot lines get started i.e.Jessica or Jade?Elizabeth with Evan?Ken and Melissa?Will Andy get into college?
If these sound interesting go out and find a copy of this book.
Happy reading!!

Summary: It was okay....
Review: Usually this book is about Elizabeth, worried about Conner and having some kind of feelings for Evan...
While single Jessica wants Evan and wants Liz to stop cheating on Conner and not liking Evan instead. But I say that Miss Jessica has to stop being ALL jealous of everyone that wants someone that she has to like.
She should mind her own business, in fact. In this book, I actually feel sorry for Melissa. It is a good thing that she starts to "move on" without Will. Conner finally apologizes to Tia and Elizabeth. Which I thought it was loyal of him.
Evan and Liz should be a couple. Well, because he's a fun, smart, and a humorous perosn to hang with. If I were Liz, I would go for it. Maybe he has long hair and all, but I think that they would be a great couple.
But Conner was never the kind of guy that would give Liz comfort and a lot of funtime with him. I'm actually surprised that Melissa goes to the dance with Ken. But I say that Ken should back together with Maria. Until she's not crabby or anything to him.
Oh, and Tia and Liz finally make up. Andy has to improve his grades with going to college and all. SO this book was okay.
Now, this is what I would give to the main characters in this book with their attitude and all.

Jessica: 3 stars/out of 5
Elizabeth:4/5
Evan: 5/5
Conner: 4/5
Andy: 5/5
Melissa: 4/5
Will: 1/5 LOL
Ken: 4/5

So in my opinion, I think that of their act in this book. So read this book. If you want to.
