Summary: Dumb, cliched story-Predicible plot
Review: Okay, first of all, Nick was Jessica's true love, but now he's disappeared?? She never even phoned him and he's the one who got her into the whole thing about becoming a cop/bodyguard/investgator. Instead, she's dating a movie star?? Jessica, who loves the limelight turns down the chance to STAR in a major play?? It doesn't fit. The ending of this story is totally predictable. I hate that the summer books are so unrelated to the rest of the series--why not just write them as a separate edition instead of fitting them in the regular, numbered SVU books? The whole New York story would have been better off on its own.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I really liked this book
Review: Sorry guys, I really liked this one! I agree, it's kind of irritating that the summer books have so little to do with the rest of the series, but still, I thought that these were about a million times better than the lifeguard books last summer! Basically, I like any books that have to do with the New York acting scene, it's so much more hip than lifeguards! I just read a really great non SVU book about that (the NY acting thing) called "Acting Normal". I'd love to know if any SVU fans have read it also, and what they think about it. Last thing -- doesn't everyone wish that Tom and Elizabeth would "get on" with their relationship?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: What Ever Happend To Nick?????????
Review: This book was ok but not that good....Elizabeth finally finished her play...it's up to you to read what happend on the play......Jessica is dating Vince...what happend to Nick???..poor Nick...Tom thought that Elizabeth like Vince.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: this book was pretty good
Review: this was a good book! the only thing i don't like about the summer books is that they have nothing to do with the books during the year! the author should connect all the books instead of seperating things and confusing the readers! the play was a great success and everything turned out well in the end, with everyone being happy again!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Interesting Plot, But Unrealistic
Review: Unlike the new Sweet Valley High (SeniorYear) and SVMS (JuniorHigh) series, which have gone so "realistic" they are depressing, this SVU book is still following the shallow, everything-works-out plot. Shallow, as in Jessica sits and gazes at a guy's stomach and face in the first chapter, daydreaming and flirting. Also, I could predict the ending halfway through the book, although the twists with Jessica being exhausted, etc. were interesting. Finally, I am very tired of Tom. He's such a leech! And he seems too bookish and insecure. Elizabeth should either get a new boyfriend, or the author should develop the other sides of his character, as well. Finally, I actually enjoyed this novel--as an escape from reality. But anyone who reads it should realize it is not realistic. :-) Visit my site @ http://members.aol.com/skittles4christ/light.html.
