Home for Christmas

Summary: Love it!
Review: I love this book! It's so intruiging. But, their are a few errors in it. For instance, the SVU books were written before Olivia Davidson died, so Olivia Davidson is at the reuinion, even though she's suppose to be dead, and Liz is talking to her a lot. Also, a few of the memories didn't exist. ANyway, this book is really good. Mike does something really increadible for Jessica, which you'll have to read in order to find out. Todd and Tom have a lot of controversity, but you'll have to read it to find out who wins Elizabeth's heart. Also, Jessica confesses the whole story to her parents. How will they react? Read it to find out! Also, they have a high school reunion, and Olivia Davidson, who's suppose to be dead is in it. It's mildly amusing how some of the people and memories that are mentioned didn't exist. This is a really great book. Even if you've never celebrated Chrismas you'll like it. This book is great!

Summary: Really great book!!!!
Review: Michael McAllery, Jessica's ex-husband saves Steven's life. Then, he wants Jessica back so he sends her gifts, and decides to drop in for Christmas. I mmiss Todd Wilkins. Elizabeth and Todd Wilkins were such a great couple. However, they have a breakup in the University series, and she's dating another guy. I love both Todd and Tom, but Todd is my favorite. Todd Wiklkins is so sweet and kind and passionate. I miss Todd. Anyway, Todd WIlkins has a fight with Tom Watts. They both are in love with Elizabeth and heve a lot in common, so they get into a huge fight. Todd Wilkins is still in love with Elizabeth, and hates her boyfriend, Tom Watts. During Christmas, Jessica ends up confessing the whole Mike thing to her parents- who get pretty mad. Then, at the high school reunion, guess what? Olivia Davidson is there! That's right, the same Olivia Davidson that died from the earthquake. This is good for Olivia fans who want to see Olivia again. SInce "Home For Christmas" was written before the earthquake, yet it takes place afetr, Olivia is still alive then. It's rather amusing. This book is great!

Summary: All right, but needed a little work...
Review: The book was intriguing enough, but some of the scenes were unrealistic & the title was a bit off. The twins don't live on Calico Drive anymore, so that should not be referred to as "home." A more appropriate title might be "Christmas with Parents" or "Christmas Visit to the Old Home" or something to that effect. Maybe Calico Drive might be their old home, but SVU is the twins' real home now. The ride back to their old home was kind of amusing & touching in that the Wakefields were crammed in Steven's car with Tom & Billie & were joking about being all over each other. The holiday feel of the book was heartwarming, especially having their parents welcome them back for their visit. But it was kind of unrealistic that when Jess confessed about living with Mike, their parents nearly threw a fit! I mean, they're adults & they're going to make mistakes. Their mom becomes just about hysterical & can't stop crying while their dad yells at them about "betraying us" & things like that. I could see if they were maybe surprised. But at least eventually their parents realized that their job of raising them was done & the twins & Steven were no longer kids. I thought it was too bad that Tom, Todd & Enid acted like such babies at the re-union dance & Todd & Tom wound up fighting. Maybe they need to grow up. But it was neat they way the twins saw many of their old classmates again...kind of like a trip down memory lane. All in all, an enjoyable holiday nostalgia read.

Summary: Pretty Good, but not he best
Review: This book isn't exactly a thrill a minute, but it has it's good parts. Here's the deal... Todd still loves Liz, but he's hanging out with Alex a lot. Liz is totally in love with Tom, but now that she's home, she's being haunted by memories of Todd. In the end, Tom and Todd get into a fist fight over her, and Tom is sure she's still in love with Todd. Read to find out what happens. Jessica is trying to avoid telling her parents about the whole Mike fiasco. This leads to a lot of lieing on Billie's, Steven's, Liz's, Tom's, and her part. Oh and Tom is so nervous about making a good impression on Liz's parents that he's messing everything up! Very funny. And Mike is still in love with Jessica, and he's getting feeling back in his legs (which he realizes while saving Steven's life at the beginning). There a lot of nice parts in this book, I'd recommend it as something to curl up with on Christmas eve. However, if you want more action, get the next few books in the series. those are great!!

Summary: no more secrets
Review: This book made me really relieved because Jessica finally tells her parents about Mike! I don't know how she could've kept the secret any longer. Poor Tom thinks Elizabeth is in love with Todd, even though she's not, when they go to the high school reunion. And what is up with Todd & Alexandra? That is sooo stupid, Alexandra needs to get over it. Even though Tom & Elizabeth are together, we all know Elizabeth and Todd will always be together someway. Tom is so sweet, though, I'm glad Elizabeth has him and he has her. This is a great book- read it if you're reading the whole series.

Summary: Teriffic!
Review: this book was great! I really liked when Tom beat-up Todd!Serves him right! he shouldn't break up with Liz and then act like he "truly loves her" and never meant any harm!
Jessica always has it hard when it comes to boys....She always gets stuck with the wrong guys! Over all, however, this book was really interesting and a good page turner!

Summary: OK, But not the best SVU book
Review: This book was OK, but could stand some adjustment. First of all,Tom is a jerk and should just leave Liz alone already! And,Mike Should quit practicly stalking Jess! All though the begining was good, The end just wasn't.
