We can't make them terrified of going outside. :( If they want to be 'edgy' and 'realistic', then why aren't the "good guys" more life-like and less saint-like? Ay yi yi. Thanks for the review! I agree about the rape thing– not only overdone, but it also reinforces negative stereotypes about the world in general– if it was like that in the 1800s, what must it be like now??–that I hate to see underlined in the minds of Christian teens. We can’t make them terrified of going outside. :(

If they want to be ‘edgy’ and ‘realistic’, then why aren’t the “good guys” more life-like and less saint-like? Ay yi yi.

Thanks for the review!
