Reading the Classics


Here I was so happy they were reading. Until I read the reviews of these books which everyone in Olivia's class was supposedly reading. TTYL is written in text message form between three 10th graders. Apparently they are not studying for their Advanced Placement exams but getting drunk at parties and talking about sex. After I read the reviews I weakly tried to pull them out of Olivia's tight grasp. "Hee-hee-hee" she chuckled "Too late".......arrrgggghhhhh......she unerringly found the the Jacqueline Susann of tween-lit. I went down to the basement and sadly dusted off my Little House of the Prairie books that I read in 5th grade...what would Ma and Pa think?
