Forever by Judy Blume

Are you there God, it's me Margaret.

Every girl in my elementary/junior high had read that book. And we talked about it.

And then a little later, Forever. I don't remember it as well. I think the innocence depicted in Forever was overwhelmed by some truly horrific bodice rippers. I'm looking at you, Rosemary Rogers.

Right Josie ?!?!

I can just see Ramona and Margaret both doing the" We must... We must".... exercise!  But I just don't see Ramona eagerly awaiting her first period. Smart girl that Ramona.

foureyedgirl - I read a book a long time ago (and reread it a few years ago) that really stuck with me. It's called The Promise (Danielle Steele). I am very much NOT a Steele fan, but this book stuck with me. It has everything - young love, betrayal, angst. But ultimately it is about the enduring quality of a love that cannot be beaten.

Anyway, thought you might enjoy it.
