Wow, that book was a sizzling hot hit among teen girls! We read it, passed it around, and hid it behind more "acceptable" books while we devoured every word.<br /><br />Just like with Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret?, another Blume classic, Forever was the FIRST book that was open and honest and completely realistic about what was really going on in girls' lives at that age.<br /><br />Thanks for the review - interesting to read an adult perspective on the book all these years later.<br /><br />I reviewed a couple of banned books on my blogs, too - <br /><br />Sue<br /><br /><a href="http://www.greatbooksforkidsandteens.com/%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Great Books for Kids and Teens</a><br /><br /><a href="http://bookbybook.blogspot.com/%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Book By Book</a><br />Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8706721891813320913.post-23286199966462260102012-10-07T04:27:41.790-04:002012-10-07T04:27:41.790-04:00My favorite is Lauren Myracle's series:)
