I don't think this book is good for teens. It's good that is does talk about issues. Maybe if it was a little more subtle then okay. I would n't recommend it for any teenager. Then again some YA books I read are not approriate either. I guess it's up to the reader if they are mature enough to read i...

One thing you must know is that this is my second time reading this whole book. Granted they were different editions, but I couldn't really tell the difference--besides the cover, of course. The dialogue sort of gives you insight that the first edition was written in the seventies. Of course, I didn...

I look back on this book with fondness, ok so it's been 20 years since I read it but it's always stayed with me (not many books from my teenage years have done that, think the only other one is Misery).Yes, it was rather graphic (for a YA book). It first introduced me to the idea that men name thei...

I read this book in my early teens. It taught me that young love is beautiful and all-encompassing but that forever at that age is a word that should be stricken from the vocabulary. While we may all dream of forever, at 15 forever can be over in a few months. And it usually is, but life moves on.Ju...
