We do have some "...Thanks Sara, it does help. We do have some "older" content books in the library (keep them in a special section for middle grade - we're k-8th). It sounds like it's interesting enough for me to read myself, and pass along to nieces, if not put it in the library. I've got nieces ranging in age from 14 to 21 (So OLD now!LOL).Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063358136590143066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495437543317089780.post-90517840178636541562010-06-18T08:19:04.007-04:002010-06-18T08:19:04.007-04:00I read this one too and loved it!

I think this one may be a little too mature for some middle schoolers.<br /><br />The main character is dealing with an alcoholic mother, who you read about being very intoxicating and actually drinking. The language isn't too bad; I'd say there's a few curse words sprinkled about. Sex and virginity is brought up once I believe, but nothing further than kissing actually happens.<br /><br />I don't remember much of what I was reading in middle school besides Harry Potter. I do remember my parents freaking out when they found out that book I borrowed from a friend had the f-word. So they may not have particularly cared for me reading this book ten years ago.<br /><br />I hope I helped. And I'm glad my reviews can help readers decide whether or not to read and/or buy a book.Sara Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147138097401395084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495437543317089780.post-51510854736029481572010-06-18T01:52:54.807-04:002010-06-18T01:52:54.807-04:00Is this out in h/c or paperback?

Also, Do you think it would be appropriate for a middle school library? How was the language?Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063358136590143066noreply@blogger.com
