Overall, several very concise poems beautifully portray the whole spectrum of emotions involved with a teen's first "love." This is not a collection of love poems, but rather chronologically sequenced poems that reflect a story, written in first-person point of view about one romance.

I don't think adults would enjoy these poems unless to reflect on how thankful they are to have survived the teen years! I do think it is appropriate for teens, especially girls. ( )
