Twins in High School

A series of books I remember reading some of before focusing mostly on these, would be these. I remember most that Elizabeth was orderly, as in "neat" & Jessica had an orderliness about her "not so neatness". I remember Elizabeth covering for Jessica many times. And a time when Jessica was out, though she needed to take a test in a class the next morning at school, managed to connect with Elizabeth (before mobile phones & text messaging were thinkable options) & ask/convince her to "play" her, wardrobe & all, & attend her (Jessica's) class, thereby skipping out on her (Elizabeth's) own class, in order to cover for Jessica. I also remember Elizabeth's boyfriend seeing right through it all; still knowing it was Elizabeth who was there at school, despite their being identical twins & wearing Jessica's wardrobe.

And I remember that the storyline, at least for that book, or chapter, went that the teacher could see how ill Jessica (as Elizabeth) was, especially in her tardiness to class, in so that since Jessica (as Elizabeth) didn't score well on the exam (since it was Elizabeth & she didn't know the material, as it wasn't her class to know), that the teacher was willing to allow Jessica (as herself 😊) retake the exam, which turned out to be a huge relief to Jessica & she was utterly thankful & appreciative of Elizabeth for stepping in & attaining this additional chance for her.

I definitely identified most closely with Elizabeth. Her style, her cleanliness (orderliness), her overall general approach - I don't recall any specifics - & I've not taken the time for any re-reading to specifically recount & recapture those particular memories.


Considering these twins I also remember another generation's memories of these books. I've never read any of these, & for some reason, I doubt I ever will. 😏 I've a feeling I'll never manage to get far enough to the bottom of the stack o' books I'm looking to read, to crack the cover of any of these. Though they are a series about girl twins just as these are. So I just wanted to give them a quick mention. 😊
