If they're young, go for it! But if they're teenagers...I wouldn't read it. It would be mentally scarring for you as a mother. :)<br /><br />Thanks! ;DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15807067899421221523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861214327063858123.post-9008484170780211432012-11-14T15:59:15.051-06:002012-11-14T15:59:15.051-06:00lol oh boy!!!

I can understand that, though.

I don't think I can read a book that is basically sex on paper. I am thankful for the review, so I know to steer clear of it!

(I tend to avoid Twilight fanfiction.)<br /><br />I don't doubt that guys look for long term relationships too, but I guess it was just easier for this author to write about shorter relationships. Of course you may hawk your own book! I'm not trying to insult guys or anything, that was just my honest opinion of Melvin Burgess's book, and I'm sorry if I somehow offended you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15807067899421221523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861214327063858123.post-25687006929400259532012-09-27T11:45:25.884-05:002012-09-27T11:45:25.884-05:00Megan,

And the only people I know that have read it are also women. <br /><br />And yes, I know that most guys didn't buy Playboy for the articles either.<br /><br />If I may hawk my own book: The Saga of the Ellen Jane provides a more, dare I say, civilized look at romance from the male perspective. (The main male character is actually looking for a long term relationship.)Timothy Kleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06947228646499776338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861214327063858123.post-5784717525853417712012-09-26T20:58:56.017-05:002012-09-26T20:58:56.017-05:00That information is confidential. :)
