So some of you may know that the Sweet Valley High series is getting republished, complete with updates to make the books less dated more contemporary. I don't really know how this is going to work in the long term, since half of SVH's plots can no longer occur with the invention of cell phones.

A list of some updates to long term continuity has been provided. Quick, see if you can spot the most horrifying example.

I was more into the Sweet Valley Twins books myself when I was a kid, which was probably just as well. SVH is fucked up in a way that SVT just isn't. I mean, SVH is hilarious to read now, and it didn't do me any harm when I was a teenager, but eight is probably a bit young.
