the book
How is a book read twice described as?
I chose to read the book because I have heard so many people talk about it and even rave about it. I thought the book was shallow and silly, an adolescent's perspective on a sexual relationship. I am no prude or right-winger, but the book has no redeeming social value. I am a man in my early 70s, and I was repulsed by the book and its superficiality. I have read and enjoyed many, many books with sexual content and enjoyed and approved of them. This one was erotica for erotica's sake, and it seemed to be written exclusively for women, and since I have no experience being one, I cannot judge their tastes, but of the 25 books I have read in the last year, this one was the least appealing or satisfying of the lot.
