Karen in SC Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Is this appropriate for my 17ds? I'm not so concerned about violence as I am about sexual content. Are there racy parts of this book? Thanks very much!!!:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Alfred Academy Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Not sure if this will help, but my dh is teaching it in his hs high school, conservative, college bound, tutorial. I have not read it myself and could not comment on the content. I know he really likes the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie4b Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 That was a different era in bookwriting. The syntax of the book is challenging, but the plot is captivating. Both ds 14 and I liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIY-DY Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I just read this last year, and no, there's nothing objectionably racy in it at all. As a matter of fact, I ended up reading through it so quickly that I wasn't paying enough attention to minute details b/c it wasn't until the very end that I realized there was a "romantic interest" going on at all! LOL! (Talk about embarrassing... gotta slow down a little, there.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifersLost Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 A little romantic, maybe, but nothing more. Cooper is fairly safe reading all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 No, I don't think there's anything to worry about at all. My boys have watched the movie version of this for years, as well as reading it in about seventh grade. Regena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
