Reader reviewed by Bailey

This is a story of 2 teenagers who are seniors in high school who are experiencing their first feelings of love.  Katherine and Michael are thinking about having sex.  Katherine thinks that she might be ready to have sex with Michael, but she wants to do it for the right reasons. 

I liked the plot and the characters of Katherine and Michael.  I disliked the ending.  It wasn't very satisfying.  I still think Katherine and Michael shouldn've ended up together forever. 

This book was written in 1975 and to this day, is considered too risque by some for the teenage reading market.  It is on the list of the top 100 books that have been banned since its publication.
