To those who read Sweet Valley High, who is worse? Jessica or Elizabeth?

Between the two Wakefield twins from Sweet Valley High, Jessica is meant to be the bad twin while Elizabeth is meant to be the good twin.

And indeed, Jessica is indeed the bad twin, because she was a typical mean girl in early books, but in later books (due to ghostwriters who write characters in certain ways), she turned out to be a sociopath too. She literally bullied a girl into attempting (something that I can't say).

However, I began to realize that maturing is realizing that Elizabeth wasn't completely innocent either, not only because there were times when she enabled Jessica's behavior, but also since she went from a hardworking, reserved, studious, caring, kind, compassionate to a nagging, meddling, sanctimonious condescending hypocrite. (Which is also a situation from certain ghostwriters). She gets upset at Jessica when she cheats on her boyfriends, but Elizabeth has also been cheating on her boyfriends throughout the series, especially Todd.

Not to mention that Elizabeth has done other certain things that were just as cruel as anything Jessica has ever done, yet it's somehow okay when it's Elizabeth doing it.

Who do you think is worse?
