The Heat of the Moment
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
After at least five books of waiting, readers can finally find out how the big play at school turns out. The main characters in this book are Toby, who is nervous about being prepared for opening night, and Anna, who has been assigned the leading role not long before the actual play. Larissa was also a fun, strong, means-buisness character in this book, and I enjoy reading about her (She's my favorite character). This book is also about the school Olympics that Sweet Valley Junior High is holding. Jessica and her team are great, and would probably be better if they didn't have slacker, snotty Lacey on their team. But let's just say that she starts feeling competitive, and gets a little more into the game. The story is entertaining, and has little parts here and there that make it memorable. If you want to find out how opening night went, you have to read this book! It is a good book, and I highly recommend it and the rest of the series to any girl looking for an entertaining read.
Lacey and Jessica.....

may actually become FRIENDS! I'm serious i think that they could, they gave each other a high-five didn't they? I don't understand why lacey has to be such a snot, because if she wasn't a snot she and jessica would have been friends from the start. Lavey actually acts like a kid sometimes, but like bethell said, awww our lil lacey is growing up. Lacey became a tad bit nicer in this book {suprise suprise}! About Toby and Anna, they have a fight but lets not get into details! {don't worry they are still together!}
AWESOME BOOK

This book was the best out of the jr. high series. I am so glad that Anna finally has a life. I'm really glad that Francine Pascal is focusing on other characters than Liz and Jessica Wakefield. I really liked this book, but it was one of those books you better be prepared not to be able to put it down.
This is a GREAT book!

I own this book and I think it is one of the best so far! It finishes West Side Story (finally) and the Olympics Week. I won't tell you what does happen between Lacey and Jessica though... Toby and Anna are sweet together, though the play interferes in some way... Exciting/sad news about the play. It was one of those books that i just couldn't put down!
There's more than one "Drama Queen" in this book . . .

I loved this book! They focused perfectly on the characters. Lacey and Jessica were slightly in the background, but enough in the book to be focused on. The Toby and Anna situation came out perfect! It was simultaneous with the play. I think that very slowly (gasp) Jessica and Lacey could become friends. I stress the word "could." They seem to be more comfortable with each other. Plus, they seem to get things done together, and quickly, too! This is one of the must-have books of the series! Happy Reading!
