I loved this book. It was humorous yet serious, and had a great style of writing. It is however not very appropriate for younger readers as it does revolve around a teen girl's first experiences with a boyfriend, and what stems from said relationship [ie. sex]. That's not to say this book should be avoided- I thoroughly enjoyed Anatomy of a Boyfriend. Let's get real- our media, from the tv, to movies, to the internet is full of less-than-positive messages, especially concerning teens and sex. It's unfortunate, but it's true. Saying this book might act like a "how-to manual" is pretty far fetched- and it's not fair to ban a book or judge an author just because the material or subject matter is more mature. If anything, it's best to get over this fear that teens will lose all innocence from reading this, or books like it. Like it or not, we're growing and learning, and chances are, we know a lot more about this subject that you know, or would like. That's life. And it's rather refreshing to know that there are authors out there who write books that are real. That are about life. That aren't overly cheesy and unrealistic. The message? Just make sure that it's the appropriate age level and you'll be sure to have a great read.
