Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
I still thought breasts might be more trouble than they were worth. Growing up reminded me a little bit of Hide and Go Seek. When it was your time to grow up, Natrue said, 'Here I come, ready or not.' And Nature could always find you.

User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A Life Experience
Stevie, a young, grey girl living in Chicago experiences new changes in life to discover her sexual identity. The book is beautifully written and should have been a bestseller.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic Novel!
I just happened to stumble upon this novel this morning in the libaray at my school and I can't put it down! April Sinclair is a poignant, powerful, hilarious writer. I can't wait to read more of her work and I'm sorry I didn't stumble upon her sooner. READ THIS BOOK,YA'LL!



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - DAMN!
Sadly enough, two weeks ago I had to toss out my AUTOGRAPHED, 1ST EDITION COPIES of "Coffee will Make You Black" and "Ain't gonna be..." because while i was packing things up to move someone spilled BEER on them! Even after drying them out, they stunk to high heaven. Not only am I upset that I had to throw them out, now I can't read them until I get new copies. Oh well. These books are worth it.

Why this story about Stevie hasn't been made into a movie yet is BEYOND me.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - It isn't scolding
I read this book so many years ago, and mainly because it was causing such a controversy at a school I just had to know what was "so bad" about this book.

It's a coming of age story where you meet young Stevie, a L7 (square) whose learning all about life and what it has to offer as far as what is a friend? a period? and the big deal about sex?

I think April Sinclair did an excellent job, we need books because sometimes mama can't talk to you because she's too afraid! I was tempted to call the school up and ask why the big fuss?



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A Great Coming-Of-Age Book
I could not put this book down for a second. A. Sinclair explores the life of Jean Stevenson (Stevie) growing up in Chicago during the 1960's. During her teenage life, she goes through struggling for an understanding of herself as a woman, standing up for what she believes in when it comes to her mother, and her unsureness of her sexuality. A great coming-of-age book that relates to the issues that teenage girls deal with, especially when it comes to sex.
