I'm not assigning labels of 'good' 'bad' 'right' 'wrong' 'appropriate' 'inappropriate' I hope I didn't come across as a cranky pants. :) It's just refreshing every once in a while to leave private things a bit offscreen. <br /><br />Even though I said the book wasn't as graphic as it could have been.

There are any number of reasons why I'm not going to tell you what we did exactly, let alone describe it. I will tell you that there were a lot of giggles and a couple of ...

But yeah, I don't think it's bad for books to be more specific about things, like Charlie (which I loved) b/c it's just realistic...but it's also good to have books like this one, which I totally want to read as well.<br /><br />I love the quote you posted where he combined a bunch of songs. Very cool. :)<br /><br />-laurenShooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-5457091700949829042009-05-27T13:22:53.844-05:002009-05-27T13:22:53.844-05:00I want this book so baaad.
