I generally try to stay away from that kind of content, and if I'd known beforehand I doubt I would have purchased the book....however, I didn't realize until I started reading. :( At that point I decided to just forge ahead and write the kind of review that I would've found helpful prior to purchasing the book.<br /><br />The Disney movie is completely clean, I can't remember anything objectionable at all, aside from maybe one "omg!" exclamation. It's a fun and very "up" feeling movie, and while it's probably not extremely realistic, I still enjoyed it.

No matter that I am not the "target audience" of teen novels, I usually enjoy the ones I've read in the past also. However because of the (unfortunate) uses of profanity and such, perhaps I'll opt for the alternative: the Disney movie. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing!Rissihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11378400717440822186noreply@blogger.com
