Sweet Valley University #11: Take Back the Night
by Laurie John
Don't get me wrong; I still love the series, but this installment definitely wasn't my favorite. Hopefully, if you've made it this far, you've read them in order, so you know what has happened to one of the Wakefield girls in the previous book No Means No. The message of this book was a little too heavy-hitting for my taste. Pretty much every character kept badgering the poor traumatized Miss Wakefield into telling the school what happened to her. Although her friends were well-intentioned, she wasn't ready to take that step. I felt she was peer-pressured into it and rushed through her healing process. However, since this is a fast-paced series, each book running a little over 200 pages, I understand why she couldn't let her refusal to speak out last longer than a couple of volumes.
