Last book before they start their sophmore year of college

University Road Trip #50 Summer of Love - except no one ends up together.  Neil is still gay so Jessica doesn't hook up with him.  Tom finally gets over Liz (and still the author's football comparisons make no sense - the quarterback's job isn't to rush for touchdowns)  Sam and Liz dance around each other with Sam still acting like a jackdonkey.  The other two girls become Liz's back up chorus.  Todd says he's over Liz and in love with Dana - run don't walk away from her.  Get back together with Liz.  And I never did understand if Danny or Allison's teams won.  And didn't Danny jump off the face of the earth in their sophomore year of college?

Moving to Sophmore year of College Sweet Valley

University #48 - No Rules - Jessica and Elizabeth go on a version of "Road Rules"  except put on by ESPN instead of MTV, and of course they don't use those names.  Jessica and Liz at this point aren't acting like opposites so whatever.  Neil is supposed to be so cool, but he's a nervous wreck.  Pam and Rob - just annoying.  Tom and Todd.  Tom has sank to new lose of patheticness.  Todd - ditch the trampy airhead, which he does.  I still so want him to get back together with Liz.  Liz's team - girl with her boyfriend following them, girl with a guitar, frat boy, and exchange student boy.  Seriously stereotypes not actual characters then there's Sam.  Sam's a jerk, less redeeming qualities than Conner.  Basically I can't figure out why Liz is interested past the fact that he's supposed to be hot.  They compete.  Jessica's team is kicking Liz's team totally - then there's another team with her sorority sister she doesn't like.  And that's all we know about the other two teams.

Sweet Valley

University #46 I'll Never Love Again

Liz - So smart but yet she doesn't recognize depression or that it's not good to make out with your sister's ex-husband?

Jessica - Feel sorry for her - but Jessica got wimpier as the series went on

Mike - Which twin does he want? or does he want something with both?

Tom - Talking about not thinking with the head on your shoulders.... Let's trash an ex-girlfriend on tv, yeah, that always goes over well.

Todd - Stay away from Dana.  Didn't he used to be smarter?

Danny - Really pathetic

Dana - even more pathetic - and pretty much a skank who really has issues that need to be addressed - I mean why does she keep trying to sleep with a girl she doesn't like's ex-boyfriends.

 

Senior Year #31 Stay or Go

Jessica wants to go to college with Jeremy (yeah well maybe if the university series had been written after senior year it could have happened)  Jeremy can't decide if he should stay with his friends, girlfriend, everything he knows or his family.  Whiny girl is drinking again because brooding boy doesn't pay enough attention to her.  Ken has a bad game - which we know is unusual for him, the scout decides to bury him but Ken's father bribes him not to.  It's really drag down the jocks in the senior year series.  Will finds out about the bribe giving him the ammunition to bring down his nemesis.  Are we on the edge of our seats for the next book?

Sweet Valley

University #43 The Price of Love- Winston, Denise and some high school girls provide comic relief.  How sheltered can these girls be to think Winston is hot?  Jessica and Nick, um, connect before he goes into the Witness Protection Program for taking down a guy who killed a cop, disabled Isabella, and creepy with Jessica.  All the while Elizabeth wonders if she should ask Tom about the box of condoms underneath his bed, and why does Jess not think this is important?  Talk about a twin switch.  Could Liz be more self-involved?

sweet valley - quick

University #20, Here Comes the Bride - Steven and Billie are getting married even though she lost the baby.  They argue a lot, their parents act crazy; Billie wants to go to Spain - since classical guitarist is obviously better than lawyer.  Tom and Liz have some wierd chase of an aunt.  I think Liz might have lost her mind.
