Summary: Not a very exciting suspense!!
Review: A reader will enjoy this the first time but it isnt really a very exciting suspense.In her early(white cover)editions of Sweet Valley High,Kate William was a very boring writer.
Rating:

Summary: This starts out well, but has an odd ending....
Review: In a series like SVH, consistency is the key. You can't kill off a character (Olivia Davidson in Last Wish/Earthquake) only to have her make a cameo appearance in a later book. (SV University Home for Christmas.)
There's another consistency problem in this book. Emily is having issues with her father, stepmother, and new stepsister. The stepsister (a toddler) chokes on a button and Emily saves her life. The stepmother is hysterical and when her dad walks in, thinks Emily has harmed the baby and yells at her to get out.
Cut to the Wakefield house. Emily's taken refuge there, while Grandma and Grandpa Wakefield come to visit. Grandma Wakefield tells Emily that when she married Grandpa Wakefield, he had already been married and had a son by that first marriage, and how nervous she felt around her new stepson. By this reasoning, Ned has a stepbrother. However, in Sweet Valley Saga: The Wakefield Legacy: The Untold Story, Ned's father, Robert, lies about his age to enlist in the Navy during WWII, where he meets Hannah (Ned's mother) via a radio where she is in a prisoner of war camp. He doesn't have any shore leave until he marries Hannah the moment the ship docks. By the Saga, Ned's parents have only been married once, and a stepson is never mentioned. Whoever is writing this series needs to remember what they've written, or have an idea of what has happened previously in the series. (Answer: Nowhere to Run was written before Wakefield Legacy and someone didn't remember or do their research!)Other than that, this is a good book over "step" conflicts, and, seeing as how this is Sweet Valley, there is always a happy ending.

Summary: Poor,poor Emily!!
Review: Sometimes I thought I might cry for Emily.She is stuck living with her evil step mother and her uncaring father,and she has no idea where her real mother is.Hence Nowhere To Run.Her stepmum won't even let her play the drums any more which means that Emily will have to quit the school band.Her entire life is falling apart and Jessica and Elizabeth want to help her.I think it was an awfully good book,that really makes you feel Emily's hell.
