I didn't enjoy it. Mainstream religion and pre-teen relationships are like, some of my least favourite topics, and they took me back in time in a bad way. I didn't really see the point of the story either, it felt like it didn't say much. Then again, it was probably more original in the 70's.

Oh my goodness, this book took me back! I didn’t really remember it until I was reading it as I first read it back in the early 80’s. It is still such a relevant book and I can’t wait to see the movie!

Such nostalgia. My love for Judy Blume started in the fourth grade. Her coming of age stories for young readers transcends the test of time. I highly recommend reading a book as an adult that you loved as a child l.
