FOREVER : A Novel of Good and Evil, Love and Hope

Rating:
Summary: Too Real
Review: This book is very accurate. Sex, whether anyone believes it or not, is part of every teen's life. This book puts into perspective the nervous feelings of two teens. It is not pornography, but a story that can belong to anyone between the ages of 14-17.

Summary: very disappointed!
Review: When I saw this book i expected it not to be as graphic as i heard because it was written by Judy Blume.But i was surprised,this book is gross,i am 13 yrs.old and since the book was written to typically teenage girls,i feel i should state my opinion.First i would like to say that the "Ralph"character was so disgusting,that was probably the biggest turn off of the book.Second,Michael,the way she described him,seemed so ugly!Not to be gross but i didnt enjoy all the graphic sex scenes with a boy who sounds like a total dog!Judy,my advice,next time you think about doing another book similar to this one,DONT!

Summary: PARENTS BEWARE
Review: I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS BOOK IS EVEN AVAILABLE TO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18. IF THIS IS THE KIND OF BOOK TEENS NEED TO READ TO FIND OUT THE FACTS, ONE MUST WONDER WHAT KIND OF WORLD ARE WE IN. THE DETAILS ARE SOMEWHAT EROTIC AND AROUSING. WHAT TEEN NEEDS TO READ THAT? THE SAD PART IS THAT , THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN THE SCHOOL LIBRARIES.

Summary: Forever is a long time
Review: This was a great book about first love. I read it at my cousins house when I was 18. I found it very tense at some parts but overall it was a great. This book teaches teenage girls that forever is a lot longer than they think. Judy Blume is the best author. She understands how things are when you are a young girl and how it is to be interested in things that you know that you should not be. This book is the best and shame on those people that called it perverted and whatnot.

Summary: Great Book
Review: I am 13 years old. I love reading and I must say this is quite a book! It took me 5 days to read it. I just couldn't put it down! I highly recommend this book. It reveals what really goes on in the average teen girl's life. It is a wonderful story of first love. This book has triumphs, and sad events too! Definately a 5 star book!

Summary: A fabulous book!
Review: I just read through all 104 customer reviews, and while I agreed with most of them, I couldn't believe the ones from people saying that this book was 'perverted', 'disgusting', and whatnot. I'm 14 years old and read this book in 2 hours the day I got it. It's a very good example of first love - you think it will last forever, but it ends up that it isn't going to happen. I don't know if the sex scenes are realistic or not, but I know this much: they are NOT your typical perfect, amazing, swooning scenes of other books and movies. It's a very honest book. Yes, it is somewhat graphic at times, but for us girls who haven't had any sexual encounters yet, it shows us how it will very likely be for us at first. Katherine is nervous, and scared when she loses her virginity - Judy Blume shows the emotions and fear that comes with it. Overall, this book is fantastic, and I recommend it to anyone who likes Judy Blume and is 13 or older!

Summary: A Taste of Reality...
Review: I think that this book was very accurate about what goes on in a teenagers life...cause things with guys and the way that the girl acted was just like your normal teenager would act...and if a teenager has never had a boyfriend or anything they should read this so they can get a taste for what is comin to them...all in all it was a good book.

Summary: a damn good read
Review: If you are looking for a quick, painless, and sexy read, then this is the book for you. From beginning to end, it is a captivating novel which tells the story of two young lovers and their struggles in finding the meaning of love. Wrought with emotion, the book not only touches the reader deeply but entertains as well. A highly recommended and poignantly written tale of love and loss, I suggest it to anyone in the mood for looooove......

Summary: i love this book
Review: i loved this book. i always felt like i had to hide it from my mom. i really learned so much from it. i was about 13 the first time i read it and i was like wow! i can't wait until this is happening to me. its a really sweet story, and i still wish kathy and michael had stayed together. but that would make it a completely different book. i would really recommend it to any teenage girl. its very sexual, and thats exactly what they want. believe me!

Summary: Forever
Review: I absoulty loved the book, I couldn't even put it down, and I can't read more novels from Ms.Blume, but I hope to write a continues to Forever, they only thing I didn't like was the ending it kind of mad me a little upset, but then again I'm the type of person who likes happy endings. But other than that I loved the book, and I'm going to get Summer Sister pretty soon. Keep up the good work.
