Hiatus announcement and Caitlin Part 3!
Hi gang! Unfortunately, we have to take a break for about six weeks so that Anna can finish her next book. We'll keep you posted and let you know as soon as we have a return date, so thank you for bearing with us. We've released the third episode of our Caitlin bonus series today as an...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE PART ONE
Lila's behind bars! And while Steven rides to the rescue to spring her from jail, Lila's supposed best friend and her sanctimonious twin truly do not care that Lila has just been charged with FIRE BOMBING A RESTAURANT. They're more concerned with splitting up her and Steven. Steven is willing to...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: TWO HOT TO HANDLE PART TWO
Just when we thought we couldn't hate Devon Whitelaw any more than we already did, he manages to outdo himself in the second half of this terrible book. He's serving as Pete and Linda's go between, but when a casino patron is robbed, Devon starts wondering where Pete gets all his jewels. Is…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: TOO HOT TO HANDLE PART ONE
We regret to inform you that an alarming amount of this book is devoted to the least sympathetic teenage orphan in literary history, Devon Whitelaw. Having insulted service industry workers and deprived himself of sleep and food for no good reason, Devon hits Vegas where he miraculously finds his...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: LILA'S NEW FLAME PART TWO
At this stage, we really thought we couldn't be surprised by Sweet Valley's approach to law enforcement and detective work. But then we learned that the only person investigating the crime scene at Fowler Crest, which was almost burned to the ground by an unknown arsonist, is... Steven Wakefield....
-
DOUBLE LOVE: LILA'S NEW FLAME PART ONE
At last, we're back in Sweet Valley! What with Flair and the Chateau, it feels like we haven't seen the SVH cafeteria in months, but the gang's all here this week, and there's only one topic of conversation: the fire that just destroyed Fowler Crest! Yes, after a sorrowful Lila burns her love...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: HAPPILY EVER AFTER PART TWO
It's our last visit to the Chateau d'Amour Inconnu, and we're leaving on a high note, because the second half of the book is full of unhinged drama, including one scene which immediately earns its place in the Sweet Valley gallery of iconic moments. With Jacques nobly sacrificing himself to prove...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: HAPPILY EVER AFTER PART ONE
Release the hounds! The twins have escaped the dungeon, but being the big eejits they are, they can't resist returning to the Chateau for... reasons. Don't expect anything here to make sense, especially the geography of the de Sainte-Maries' kingdom which becomes even more confusing in this book....
-
DOUBLE LOVE: TO CATCH A THIEF PART TWO
Alas, our hopes for some Frank Cobra level excitement in the second half of this book were not realised, as most of it consists of Jessica being unbearable, Jacques acting like a prize fool, Laurent being a spineless embarrassment and Liz running away crying. Only the constantly shrieking…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: TO CATCH A THIEF PART ONE
We're back at the Château, where both twins feel like they've found their happily ever afters with handsome Frenchmen (is Laurent actually French or is he a citizen of the unnamed principality? Unclear). But there's trouble in paradise. Jessica's dreams of being accepted by her royal bosses as…
more -
PI BETA ALPHA: CAITLIN LOVING PART TWO
As Anna is feeling under the weather this week, unfortunately we don't have a new episode for you. However, here is a taste of the bonus podcast with our second episode of the Caitlin series. We hope you enjoy! If you want to listen to the full series become a member at...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: ONCE UPON A TIME PART THREE
We're coming to the cottage! No, not the fun romantic one, we're talking about Laurent's mysterious maze-adjacent home, where Liz takes refuge after being caught in a storm. This pair of doses met in their dreams (ugh) and now they're staying up all night engaging in witless banter. Is Liz right...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: ONCE UPON A TIME PART TWO
We return to the Escher drawing that is the Chateau d'Amour Inconnu, situated on an island that continues to baffle us with its weird geography. Yes, the twins have arrived at their new royal workplace, where their employers are charming but they are expected to sleep in a filthy garret. While...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: ONCE UPON A TIME PART ONE
Bienvenue, listeners! Yes, we're living through the longest, grimmest winter ever, but Jessica and Elizabeth are heading to the south of France again (or as the ghostwriter would have us believe, the first time. René who?) to spend the summer (what summer? Who cares!) as au pairs. To our great...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: FASHION VICTIM PART TWO
Having been fired from her internship at the world's least professional fashion magazine thanks to Leona's lies, Liz feels utterly defeated. But when Jessica suggests a little light burgling, she starts to wonder if she can expose the scheming editor. But she - and indeed we - underestimated...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: FASHION VICTIM PART ONE
We're back in the Flair offices, and the hinges are totally coming off now. Liz puts her supposedly brilliant revenge scheme into action, with some frankly unnecessary help from Maria and Enid whose own internships have clearly fallen by the wayside. But will Leona foil her plans? Meanwhile...
-
Announcement: No New Episode Today
Sorry gang, we have no new episode today, but we'll be back next week to talk about the Flair office and what appears to be Liz's Working Girl storyline. Join us then for part one of Fashion Victim! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
-
DOUBLE LOVE: MODEL FLIRT PART TWO
Have you ever looked at an Ancient Roman themed fashion shoot and thought "what this really needs is some random cats wandering around with no expert supervision?" Have you ever bunked off work and left a teenage intern - with whom you inexplicably discuss your personal life - to do your job?…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: GWYNETH'S EMAIL IN FULL
We don't have a new episode for you today, but we thought you might like to hear Gwyneth's amazing email in full to tide you over until next week. Also, don't forget to vote for Anna's book Our Song in the Irish Book Awards! Cast your vote here: https://www.irishbookawards.ie/vote/ This show is...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: MODEL FLIRT PART ONE
We're back in the wildly unprofessional offices of Flair, where Liz's dream job is turning into a nightmare. She's still reeling after catching Todd and Simone in a passionate embrace and now her mentor Leona seems to be crushing her dreams. Though as soon becomes clear, Leona's editorial…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: COVER GIRLS PART TWO
Someone in HR needs to do an intervention at the Flair offices, because this workplace is terrifyingly unprofessional. The twins are still interns at what we're told is the hottest fashion magazine in town, but things aren't working out as they hoped. Liz's (genuinely good!) idea is rejected by...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: COVER GIRLS PART ONE
We had low expectations for this trilogy after the vampire drama but Cover Girls turned out to be a lot of fun - albeit with some wildly, unsettlingly inappropriate moments. The twins are doing yet another internship, this time at allegedly hot fashion magazine Flair. Liz is taken under the wing…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: ON THE RUN
We're back - with a super thriller from 1988! Yes, we're revisiting the twins' sejourn at the Sweet Valley News, where everyone's obsessed with the trial of mob boss Frank DeLucca. Liz is convinced that someone will step forward and testify against him, while new fellow intern Darcy mocks her…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: KISS OF A KILLER PART TWO
We're back for the conclusion of the greatest story ever told! Having discovered Jonathan's secret vampire-themed library, not to be confused with Lord Pembroke's secret werewolf-themed library which she discovered in the werewolf trilogy, Liz is convinced that Jessica's new love is a creature of...
-
PI BETA ALPHA: MEET CAITLIN!
We don't have a new episode for you this week, but we'll be back next Thursday to find out what happens in part two of Kiss of a Killer! In the meantime, there's someone we'd like to introduce you to... It's a whole new era at Pi Beta Alpha! Part Lila, part Jessica and possibly part Margo,...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: KISS OF A KILLER PART ONE
Good news! Jonathan's manky kip of a house is finally being cleaned. Bad news! The cleaning is being done by our beloved Goth Enid, who doesn't cover herself in glory in this book by (a) doing Jonathan's housework in a pathetic and ill-fated attempt to win his heart and (b) not caring at all…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: DANCE OF DEATH PART TWO
The first part of this unhinged book was magnificent, and the second half doesn't disappoint. Get ready for the (sadly brief) triumph of Goth Enid over Jessica, Todd swapping his chinos for black jeans, Liz being repulsed by dyed hair, Joey's inexplicable attempts to introduce her to her own home...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: DANCE OF DEATH PART ONE
We don't want to be hyperbolic, but this might be the greatest book ever written. It's got history's least charismatic and sexy vampire! It's got a literally crumbling gothic mansion! It's got Alice and Ned getting pissed at the café theatre! It's got Jessica punching a locker in a fit of rage!...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: TALL, DARK AND DEADLY PART TWO
This book truly is all killer (literally), no filler! Liz continues to be the world's worst friend, not least because she reacts with hilariously OTT horror to Enid's amazing makeover. Yes, we have reached Enid's goth era, and we are absolutely loving it. We do NOT love Joey, who decides to...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: TALL DARK AND DEADLY PART ONE
We’ve all been waiting for this mini-series and we are very happy to announce that it doesn’t disappoint! When Jessica and Lila discover a dead body behind the Dairi Burger, Liz is convinced something wicked this way comes. But Jessica’s more concerned with allegedly hot newcomer Jonathan Cain…
more -
Announcement: No episode this week
We have no new episode today, but we'll be back next week to talk about what happens when Sweet Valley gets its own resident... vampire?? Join us then for part one of Tall, Dark and Deadly! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
-
DOUBLE LOVE: CAMP KILLER PART TWO
You wait five episodes for some action in this mini-series and then all of it comes at once! Yes, it's all kicking off at Camp Echo Mountain and we are loving it. Jessica skives off the colour war to picnic with Paul, leaving doormat Liz to compete in her challenges as well as her own. But then...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: CAMP KILLER PART ONE
We're back in Camp Echo Mountain, and there's a new villain in town. But is local maniac (their words, not ours!) Crazy Freddy just a campfire horror story, or is an axe-wielding killer really lurking by the lake? Our new favourite character Nicole is determined to convince Liz of the latter,...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: MEET ME AT MIDNIGHT PART TWO
We’re back at Camp Echo Mountain, where Jessica’s plan to win Paul’s horrible heart reach new heights of sociopathic toxicity. If you literally have to kidnap someone on a canoe, it’s a bad sign Jess! Meanwhile a heartbroken Liz gets bad advice from Maria, Winston rides a horse and Lacey loses…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: MEET ME AT MIDNIGHT
Is Liz in a lavender haze? She's certainly not in her right mind in this episode, as she's torn between Todd and Joey. Will she actually make a choice between the two boys or will her nemesis Nicole (whose crimes have clearly been forgotten by everyone else at Camp Echo Mountain) make it for her?...
-
Announcement: Sorry, no episode this week
We have no new episode this week! But we’ll be back in the PBA clubhouse next week to discuss a film with a tenuous Sweet Valley connection…. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
-
DOUBLE LOVE: ELIZABETH'S RIVAL PART TWO
We're back at Camp Echo Mountain, which continues to be a mess thanks to the disturbingly unprofessional Lacey Cavannah. As Lila pretends to be an outdoor type to impress Bo and Liz mopes over red-lipped Pob, sorry, Joey, Jessica is feeling quite smug - her vow to stay away from boys has left her...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: ELIZABETH'S RIVAL PART ONE
It's the summer holidays (again)! And so the twins and Lila are off to Camp Echo Mountain, an absolute kip in the wilds of Montana. Liz can't wait to be reunited with her former BFF Maria Slater (who?) and mould young minds, but alas things don't work out as she planned - not least because Maria…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: A KISS BEFORE DYING PART 2
The high school war is drawing to a close, but as the incredibly spoilery cover and indeed title suggest, there'll be a tragic casualty before peace breaks out. While this half of the book has a lot of boring surfing stuff, it also contains a lot of drama, including Todd's melodramatic prison...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: A KISS BEFORE DYING PARTY ONE
We're back! And we pick up exactly where we left off, in the aftermath of the warehouse battle. Todd and Bruce have been carted off to the Big House, where the fists of fury make a dramatic appearance, Liz is torn between concern for Todd and anger at her macho classmate's violence, and Jessica…

-
DOUBLE LOVE: THE HIGH SCHOOL WAR PART TWO
The high school war (remember that? Don’t worry, this book will remind you of it a LOT) is still raging, and when Bruce leads the SVH lads to slash the tyres of the Palisades goons’ cars, things escalate pretty quickly. Alas it’s Winston who ends up in true danger - will he be the first fatality…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: THE HIGH SCHOOL WAR PART ONE
Did you know there's a high school war on? Well, don't worry, you'll get reminded of it a LOT during this episode! After the dramatic rumble at the Palisades/SVH dance, the Sweet Valley jocks are out for blood - and a stunned Jessica vows never to see her Palisades love Christian again. Of course...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: IN LOVE WITH THE ENEMY PART TWO
Tension rises in both Sweet Valley and Palisades this week, as Liz's attempts to forge connections between the two schools backfire spectacularly. Being called Li'l Windbag has traumatised Ken so much he's basically had a personality transplant, and the former lovable himbo can think of nothing…
more -
DOUBLE LOVE: IN LOVE WITH THE ENEMY PART ONE
We're back! And not before time. When the Palisades Pumas play dirty on the football pitch, the boys of Sweet Valley vow revenge, but Liz, Enid and their new Palisades pals decide to bring the rival schools together with a dance. Of course. However, when the SVH lads indulge in some truly iconic...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: JESSICA'S SECRET DIARY
Ever get the feeling you've been cheated? We had high hopes for Jessica's diary, which promised to reveal all about Jessica's steamy antics with Jeffrey French behind Liz's back. But unlike Liz's secret diary, which featured a whole romance with Ken, this is basically just a recap of SVH books...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: JESSICA'S OLDER GUY PART 2
Don your young executive outfit and pick up your poetry books, we're heading back to SVU! Jessica comes up with a scheme to both go to the big dance with college boy Zach AND stay in the Theta sorority's good books - and it's unhinged even by her standards. Will Liz go along with it?(Well, hat do...
-
Announcement: Sorry, no episode this week
We don't have a new ep for you this week, but by way of apology, you can read a 19 year old Anna trying to convince people to jump on the SVH bandwagon in a zine from 1994! Read it here: https://www.headstuffpodcasts.com/podcast_news/sweet-valley-high-according-to-19-year-old-anna/ We'll chat to...
-
DOUBLE LOVE: JESSICA'S OLDER GUY PART ONE
The Wakefield twins are still at SVU - and it looks like they won't be coming home. High on her inexplicable success in the journalism competition and her own massive sense of entitlement, Liz is determined to shine at SVU - but she may be out of her depth. Meanwhile Jessica is so smitten by Zach...
