Well, as a whole, this series is not as good as I remember. But I also first read this maybe 20-25 years ago? And now I feel old. It was cute. Very nostalgic for me. The parts I remember being smutting and scandalous, so much that I marking them all in my early teen years, were in fact… not smutty at all. Overall fun to reread and remember why I was so obsessed with this series.
