Critique On A Book

Overall this book brings to light some hard life lessons that all of us must learn as we grow up. We must question societies’ beliefs and ask why it is that we believe such things. We all become sexually active sometime, and must deal with the complications and consequences that this can lead to. And all of us struggle with forgiveness, to be forgiven, as well as to forgive others. The authors quest to make the book thought provoking seems to leave the book open and “not finished” to some people. Maybe the author’s intent all along wasn’t to make the reader feel “finished” and content at the end of the book. Perhaps the author wanted to leave it open, leave the reader questioning, so that we might all think a little bit harder about the values and themes in our own lives. ~Tina Bash
