Forever by Judy Blume: a review

Like my mother said, you can't go back to just holding hands.

Forever, Judy Blume

Just thinking about Judy Blume puts me in a happy mood. Her young adult books do not shy away from the tough issues, something that has gotten her in some trouble with the sensors. Judy Blume lays it out, real talk. But that, more than anything, proves that what she has to say is something that the younger generation needs to hear.

She writes stories about young people, going through issues that young people face on a constant basis. Reading about it, though? How scandalous!
