Writer's Block: Book review

As a general rule, I think banning books is wrong. That said, I wish that fewer girls would read the Twilight saga and view it as a description of how a relationship is supposed to work. Read it, if you want, but don't be misled.

I don't know, I just really don't think anything ridiculous like that is necessary - are we going to post warnings like that in all YA novels that people find objectionable in one way or another...?

She's just kidding, hon. That's Steph's sense of humor.

Oh, sorry about that - sorry Steph *head desk* sometimes sarcasm is hard to read online

Don't worry about it :) It really can be difficult. Steph genuinely doesn't like the books (although I know you and a couple of my other friends do), but she wouldn't make a suggestion like that with any sort of seriousness. At least, I don't think she would.

That's ok, I'm fine with people not liking some books that I love but banning/censorship of media is a pet peeve of mine so I can get quite grumpy about it very easily. I have to keep Big Brother in check :P

Heh, no problem. I'm prone to a bit of hyperbole when it comes to... well most things, now that I think on it ^.^;;

I'm probably not giving teenaged-girls enough credit.

Then again, I do remember what a raging moron I was at that age. o.o (haha. She says as if she isn't anymore :B)
