Teens will love this book - and will get the message
When teens are treated badly by members of the opposite sex, parents' explanations often sound preachy. This novel gets at both the angry emotions and how kids make better choices next time - in a funny, summer-camp-for-aspiring-writers-and musicians story. The message "think before you hurt the other person" comes through loud and clear.
if you dont believe your child should be reading this than make a note about that but dont completely bash the book. i was a students of the author of castration celebration last year and i have read all of his books. jake's books basically have the same theme whats on the minds of teens
