Comments: This is an adult book about teenagers. That said I LOVED this book. It was HILARIOUS! And I really like Jordan, she was such a good person, kind, mature, fair, truthful, NOT STUPID, shy, yet confident, and motivated. She was someone I totally wanted to root for. Other than that this book was very well written and paced. I loved the discussion of a girl on a football team, someone as good as the boys but still not taken seriously at points. Just lots of good stuff in this book, entertainment-wise. Morality-wise this book of course had crap in it. Teenage sex is a hot topic of discussion and exploration however none of it is explicit. And there was a lot of cussing. Jordan talks the way a "typical" southern-boy-football-player would talk, most of the time I find it completely hilarious but I cringed a few times too. All of that really stinks because the rest of the book is so well done and I would LOVE to recommend it. But...
