Wakefields of Sweet Valley

I can't even begin to describe how good this book is. It's a sweeping saga of love, heartbreak and courage. Even after 7 or so years ago when I bought it I still remember it fondly. This book involves the women on Alice Robertson's side of the family. It shows these beautiful women's courage and strength as it follows them from a boat heading for America where Alice meets the true love of her heart, Theodore Wakefield, to Sweet Valley California. Along the way you experience the heroic spirit of each of the women and their loves and losses. This is no drippy love novel but a novel that is filled with both bright and dark moments as each character faces challenges and love lost and found. If you like this novel I suggest for Adult readers To Deep for Tears and for the younger reader The Wakefield Legacy: The Untold Story.

This book is amazing. If you loved Sweet Valley before, you'll love it even more after reading this novel. I couldn't believe the captivating stories that Elizabeth and Jessica's ancestors had. I mean, w/ Elisabeth's death, to Ted Wakefield's involvement w/ Samantha and Amanda, everything is just gripping, and you can't stop reading it. I was surprised to learn how much Elizabeth and Jessica's paternal and maternal ancestors had intertwined. AWESOME BOOK..a must-have for any avid Sweet Valley reader.

I like this book a lot and would definitely reccomend it to other Sweet Valley fans (and people who are not familiar with Sweet Valley). It was really dramatic and it's hard to say nothing about this book. However, "The Fowlers of Sweet Valley" is still the best book I have ever read. I highly reccomend that you read it.

This book has every thing romance, comedy, drama; you name, it has it. I loved the way the book flowed from one generation to the next. I couldn't put this book down. After I finished it I bought the next book.

I loved this saga and I cried when Elisabeth, part of the first pair of twins died while riding Jessamyn's horse. Even if you don't read the Sweet Valley series, I recommend this book to anyone who likes reading about historical times!
