Sweet Valley University #26.5: What Winston Saw
by Laurie John
In this installment in the Thriller section of the Sweet Valley University series, everyone takes a break from the linear timeline, gets attacked by a frightening serial killer, and then forgets all about it in the next book, Elizabeth and Todd Forever. For example, in this book, Winston and Denise randomly have problems within their otherwise sweet and romantic relationship. He gets seduced by his boss’s wife, which is incredibly unlikely, if you’re aware of the normal timeline of the books. Maybe Francine Pascal or Laurie John wanted Winston to have a book all to himself and couldn’t think of any other way to get him into trouble.
This book was a little more gruesome than the other Thriller Editions, so make sure you have a strong stomach. While there have been murders in the other books, this book is more descriptive in the killer’s motivations and lust for blood. He’s a very creepy villain, so the readers will be sure to hope he gets caught and punished. If you really like Winston and Denise’s relationship and don’t want to read their rocky times, you can skip this one. Neither one will remember the hurt in the next book, nor will they know you didn’t read about it.
