Episode 3: Daddy, bring me a narwhal!
Dove, Raven and Wing discuss Sweet Valley Twins 7 Three’s a Crowd, 8 First Place, and 9 Against the Rules, as well as bleak Valley.
Evil triplets snarkily recap Sweet Valley Twins, High, University, Confidential & Sweet Life
Dove, Raven and Wing discuss Sweet Valley Twins 7 Three’s a Crowd, 8 First Place, and 9 Against the Rules, as well as bleak Valley.
Evil twins, Wing (she/her) and Dove (she/her), trade Point Horror for Sweet Valley. And they have a secret triplet, Raven (he/him), joining them for a dude’s point of view.
We will be recapping Sweet Valley Twins (and all the special editions, including The Unicorn Club) to start with, and if Wing survives that, we may try other Sweet Valley series.
We are on hiatus, but feel free to read through our extensive back catalogue.
Our Podcast music is provided by Stuart Taylor of Legacy Breakfast.
Dove's fanfic can be found at The Sweet Valley Sixers.

I really enjoy the idea of Bleak Valley. It does make the series more palatable, especially with the loads of fat/disability/minority/outsider shaming that was common here – and in many other 80s seri…
If you do continue on recapping, I’d fascinated to hear University recontextualized as it is the most realistic series (except Senior Year, but I didn’t read any of them so I’ve only heard of the late ’90s realism.) I didn’t read SVU until I was an adult but the plots actually have some consequence. I was totally thrown by #1 because the Twins are in vastly different places than they started and there was be no sitcom-y return to the norm to start #2.
