Her body, she should be able to do what she wanted to with it.

I can see why certain aspects bothered you or just didn't resonate with you, but the way it's told sounds interesting.

It's a great topic, like you said. Julie is right, being a kid in high school is scary now!<br /><br />Terrific review, Karen!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05088517756967575931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-46523790997452173972013-05-28T20:05:44.643-04:002013-05-28T20:05:44.643-04:00I can see your points but I agree that things were...I can see your points but I agree that things were touched on lightly and agree with some those points you brought up :) <br />High school is scary Julie@My5monkeyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17861113387434481518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-84610261404685200842013-05-28T17:57:09.864-04:002013-05-28T17:57:09.864-04:00I would still give it a shot.

He was such a jerk though. The whole situation left me very conflicted.

He needed to be and slapped upside the head as well. LOL Guess, I shouldn't read this one on my ereader.

We had enough drama with note-passing and whispered gossip in the changing rooms!<br /><br />Shame the characters weren't that memorable, but I'm curious to see how this one pans out.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14312515005865122767noreply@blogger.com
