Katherine is interested.
Katherine and Michael are ready—for each other, for love. Katherine is ready for her first time. They are both ready for this to be forever. They are perfect together, inseparable. Until the summer separates them, and Katherine meets Theo. But she and Michael are truly in love. That means forever. Right? Is this really the love of a lifetime, or the very beginning of a lifetime of love?
Reviews
Great book
4By VPTX09This book was super good and I don’t regret reading it at all but there are just a few things I would change. First of all, it’s a little bit cringe. I say that only because of the fact the Michael named his penis “Ralph”. I couldn’t stand it. It’s also a little descriptive but it didn’t bother me that much. Also, I’m more attracted to male brunettes than red heads but whatever. Judy Blume is still my favorite author and this book is still great. But I don’t recommend reading this if your under the age of thirteen.Judy Blume classic
4By MinniettmThe 1 star reviews are a complete reach... this book is told from a teenage girl point of view. The relationship she’s in is her first “true love.” So of course its going to be descriptive and a tad bit hopeless... I read this book for the first time in the 6th grade, and I understood the time period of this book was indeed written during the 70s. I think this is a good read for young teens... if you’re above the age 18 don’t waste your time.Loved This Book
5By Jonny U5I read this book for a banned book project when I was in college. Even though it does deal with teen sexuality it’s not as graphic as Fifty Shades of Grey. Plus the author wrote it for her daughter who had AIDS.DO NOT GET
2By amarachi2.0The main character,Katherine never learned a valuable lesson,anything in her old life practically disappeared and replaced with her boyfriend, Michael which in the end they broke it off,and there isn’t any obstacles in there relationship that strengthens it and there for result in their easy break up and in the end it is not worth the $9.73 removed from your hard earned money.Terrible
1By kikkachuwI did not like this book at all. Too many privileged rich kids with toxic personalities. None of the characters were like-able. I finished it in 8 hours because I thought that eventually it would get better but it actually got worse. Not worth it. VERY VERY outdated.Best book ever !💗
5By lisss falcAn incredible book . Blume really knows her stuff.Pretty good
4By Adddison ❤️💙💜💚I read this book and though it was okay. Some parts were inappropriate though, so it should be a 15+ book. I got it at the library in the kids section!! Five year olds could be reading about this stuff! I do recommend it though.Ew
1By Onyx_the_Frenchie2018🤩This book is disgusting Judy Blume is WAAAAAAAYYY too discriptive about Michaeal’s ‘Ralph’ (his p****s) and I don’t know why this was published I hated this book. This is very outdated and there are many new things about sex and birth control PLEASE STOP 🛑 printing this book!!!Pretty good
4By Kenzjoy264Ok well I just read this at thirteen years old. It's way too descriptive for middle schoolers though. I would suggest it for high schoolers. The ending was disappointing though. It was a good book.Good book!
5By Ruby Jo✌️⭐️I love the book I thought it was really good.... The ending was kind of sad though I wish it was different.There should be a 2nd book! But other then that I thought it was a great book! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
