This novel contains some adult material. Parents are urged to learn more before allowing their children to read it. This novel's theme of sex, violence, and love or its portrayal may be considered offensive and inappropriate to some readers. If you are concerned, I suggest reading My Mother Would have Burned this Book and/or Dissecting the "Moral Duty" of a Reckless and False Review
