User Reviews about Split Decision (Sweet Valley High Senior Year No. 14)

This book just seemed to drag on. It kept talking about how tia missed angel and because of it she found a new guy. So, tia ends up breaking angels heart and they both go on a break. hopefully she will just hook up with trent. Then there is jessica and her guy problems as usual. Except now there is evan who she somewhat likes but still can't get past how he looks so different from the other guys she has dated. They don't talk about conner and liz that much even though they should. Oh, and Andy found some sophmore who he likes but doesn't. -- blah blah blah

I thought this book was pretty good. I really like Evan, he seems really cool. and why doesn't jess just admit she still has feelings for will? why does she have to throw herself in a relationship she isn't ready for and hurt evan in the process? the tia/trent/angel triangle was totally predicatable. of course tia is going to want to date other people while angel is gone and vice versa. they r too young to stay together forever. it is just sad when u realize that people change and grow apart even tia and angel. -- split decision

By the cover alone, you can tell "Split Decision" is mainly Tia Ramirez's book, though it alternates between Jessica Wakefield and Andy Marsden as well. Jessica gets dumped in the second chapter by Will Simmons for his ex, Melissa Fox (big surprise there--not); but Jess doesn't waste any time rebounding with one of Conner McDermott's sarcastic friends (Evan Plummer), though she starts to have her doubts about Evan, not that I blame her--he was pretty rude. Besides, we already have one mismatched couple--Liz and Conner--we don't really need another, in my opinion. And Andy, in an attempt to find his niche, joins the SVH Outdoors Club, only to have a perky sophomore named Six Hanson fall head over heels for him. How he feels about Six, though, is still unclear.

Now back to Tia: At the end of "All About Love" (the previous book), Tia had cheated on her college boyfriend (Angel Desmond) with Trent Maynor, which was quite ironic, since she had been the one fearing Angel would cheat on her first with some busty coed. Anyway, Tia feels guilty about it--but not enough to stop seeing Trent. Tsk tsk, Tia.

"Split Decision" isn't one of my favorite SVHSY books, probably because I'm not much of a Tia fan, but it was interesting to see how things worked out between her, Trent, and Angel. Worth reading if you're into teen love triangles and especially if you're a SVHSY fan. -- Book #14 in SVH: Senior Year Series

Well this was an ok SVHSY book. It was mostly about Tia questioning her relationship with Angel. She meets this guy Trent at the club and for some strange reason she just cant control herself and starts making out wit this random guy that she just met like 5 mins ago!! That totally confused me when she did that. And Jessica is scared to start a relationship with Evan b/c of what Will and Melissa might think of her. -Which was so ShAlLoW!!- So all in all it was a good book. And u have 2 read it stay in tune wit the series!! -- An ok book...

I really liked this one even though it wasn't one of my favorites. Tia needs to tell trent and angel whats going on and see what's best after that. I think Jess and Evan would be cute if he..cleaned up a little. But im not sure if he's realy her type. I love the whole connor/Liz thing, but i wish they would just stay together now! And Andy and Six is cute..I hope he's interested in her... -- Pretty Good
