Naughty novel? | TuscaloosaNews.com

So this fifteen year old girl checked out a book from her school library, and now says she won’t return it. Sheesh, buy your own copy, they’re not that expensive.

    Interesting decision to provide such a long excerpt with the story.

    That’s the most disturbing F***ing thing I’ve read in a very long time.

    Okay. The grandmother is fifty years old and has raised eleven “sets” of kids? Does anybody know what that means? Does that mean, her own ten and then “sets” of grandchildren from each child? Can’t really blame her for being a real booster for abstinence at this point.

    I have to say, it does seem a little bit explicit for a high-school library. On the other hand, it’s not like these things aren’t happening (and happening all the more where teens are pledging abstinence). My young life might have gone a lot differently if I’d read books that explained that you can get addicted to having boys desire you, to their need itself, not the sex, and that this is not a good thing. But all I had was Seventeenth Summer, in which IIRC “his lips tasted like fresh raspberries.” Having never tasted a fresh raspberry, this was particularly useless information.

    “Does anybody know what that means?”

    Fertility exists in inverse proportion to intellect?
